Human life is so damn fragile. Safety is an illusion. The only moment we can be sure of is this one. And lots of other tired platitudes as well.

So many of us in this community feel so deeply. So many of us suffer unduly from life’s little betrayals. Let’s just be gentle with each other, OK? Let’s take good care of each other, because the Universe isn’t going to.

It appears you've heard now. I didn't want to post the news myself, yet I felt I needed to say something. Maybe that's cowardly. I don't know.

Anyway, *love&

We've had a loss. A friend has been in an accident. Loos like Nixie has details.

Anyway. Life's unpredictable, and often brutal.

sharing in your sentiments and offering my support and love

Life truly is so fragile, we all should cherise, love and support each other every day. And enjoy life while we can. I am reminded of a line from Four Weddings and a Funeral, "All men must die, but not all men truly live."

Let's all live and enjoy every moment we can share together. And may whatever spirits there may be bless us all.

I'm comforted that he was one who really did a lot of living.

Thanks, sweetie. Love to you and L.

It is shitty. He'd seemed to have gotten so much happier recently. Then this.

Love you, too.

I know this well. *hugs you* At least we have friendship to keep us warm against the cold of the Universe. Also, quilts. *nods*

Terribly sorry to hear about this. You're right, it's barely a whisper away from any of us on any given day, but all we can do is try to live well while we're here. Or something else corny like that...
