I would have slipped quietly out the door but there are some nice people here who might worry, although I dont see why any of you would worry about me but I dont always think happily of myself. I got to be going now, I enjoyed posting and reading the posts here. Some of you know a bit about me and those who inquired of me thankyou for your caring words. I hope many good things come to you all. You call yourselves a family, stay a loving family. Delaine (mercyforme)
Maybe I may have missed something here. I am a little confused by your actions. If you like posting here and enjoy the company of others that are here, then I see no reason why you should leave us. I hope you take the time to reconsider before you do anything drastic.
But if this is not the place for you then all I can do is wish you the very best in your future.

I hope this wasn't due to some altercation in the forums. If so, your leaving is pointless, and only hurts yourself.

I wish you all the best and hope one day you would return. I hope there was nothing said to offend you and your leaving is under good terms. I hope you would reconsider, your postings are very nice and I have enjoyed reading them. If you decide to leave then good luck and it was nice knowing you.
Take care.

It would be better if you stayed but if you go anyway:
May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, the rains fall soft upon your fields and, until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand.

'S i Alba tìr mo chridhe. 'S i Gàidhlig cànan m' anama. Scotland is the land of my heart. Gaelic is the language of my soul.
I was worried, so I wrote our Mercy to make sure she was okay. She is fine. She just was concerned because she was spending too much time on the board and neglecting the things in her life that are important to her. She does have an appointment with her doctor today so she can start getting the help she needs for her emotional problems. She is very grateful for the prayers and love she received here.
So, while she will be missed here, take comfort in the knowledge that she is OK. And I get the sense she will continue to be OK and get even better.
And if you're still reading here mercy, hope all goes well and you come back soon.

Thank you T. Sargent for the update about Mercy for me. I do know what it is like to get in here and spend a lot of time here and neglect some of my other things to do. For a while, my Wife thought that I lived in here.
Mercy, if you read this, it is OK to talk to people here, sometimes other can help in what we are going through. I can speak from my own personal experiences that talking to someone helps.
Have yourself a good life. I cannot speak for everyone but I know I can speak for a lot of us here that we wish you the best.
Thanks Tod. Had me worried there for awhile. Mercy, I'll miss you. May God bless you. You'll be in my prayers. I DO hope you will drop in and let us know how things are going every once in a while. You are now part of CR's BIG loving family.
