Laura and I had talks about a few things and she asked my opinion on some of them and for assistance on others.
Personally when I saw her bot running immediately still after her leaving us, I was humbled and stunned --- but had seen it running for a long time on my posts. I thought that was nice of her, I still do.
One thing was the behaviour of people on here, and how it affected things and people and I feel the same as her, to this day, as to how some people are affected.
I could say a lot more but I just won't. For lots of reasons.
I think Laura gave a lot of herself, with what she had to give, just like many of us do who get maligned and tossed to the side many times, no matter what we are dealing with or how good our intentions are.
Some of what we discussed and the rest has been discussed a lot on this platform.
The behaviour of people at times, has really changed how I view people and motives and generosity and transparency and a lot of other things now.
I always felt I was going to meet Laura one day, and looked forward to that, despite both of our health issues, oddly --- neither of our faults. We consoled each other in that regard also.
I also knew she was a ticking time bomb that suffered greatly.
And I will miss her and our conversations ring ever so loudly in my ears and mind as she impacted many of us.
I have always tried to be kind to people but like I said, some of the behaviour of people towards one another is really quite cruel and cold and that is something else many of us share and have a burden to deal with, in the reality of this life we are here for.
Our days are numbered, clearly. It would be nice to show a little more kindness to one another.
Kindness is sometimes hard to come by, until a tragedy shakes us up. I'm glad that you and Laura connected.
Thanks.
I am still bothered by all of this. I wonder if her passing will lead to any substantive changes.
I think she would like that.
