Thoughts Post your little thoughts.

[Fildo66]

I went to post a multi-paragraph screed about something going on in my personal life and how it related to something on this site. Then I thought to myself, "Look, nobody cares about any of this and neither should you. You spent way too much time drafting this up. Move on."

What is the actual moral of the story here? Life is too short to waste your energy on petty matters, and I mean that in the most encouraging way possible.

My man … that is how I attack life. Takes way too much energy to hold onto petty things and deal with negative people. Can’t do it. And neither should you. You are correct … life is too short to dwell on drama.

Last year was a very rough year for me . I'm still trying to come out the other side of it mentally and in other ways. I'm still, internally , battling my thoughts and emotions. Guess I'm still in the numb stage from everything that's happened . Family and friends have been there all the way and still remain by my side for which I am so thankful for. Another thing that I'm very grateful for is YOU!!!...The people of FCN!!...So many wonderful, caring, amazing people on here that have kept me in line and on my toes. I'm rebuilding my life from scratch. It's hard and exhausting and sometimes I just don't know if I can keep doing the battle thing. I truly take my hat off to people that take hit after hit after hit and still remain solid. Some of those people are in here and I'm lucky enough to get to know them , love them and accept them them for who they are and what they have gone through and going through. Sooooooooo lol This is a shout out to the many friends I've made on here ...YOU ARE APPRECIATED!!!!! xoxoxoxoxox

Hugs, without touching the garage

My thoughts …. I have been a member here for far longer then I ever thought I would be. I have met some people who I now call my friends. I have spent many hours happily playing in the threads and laughing as the minutes turn into an hour with out me really realising.
But lately that fun has gone. Yes I know the world is a mess and people are struggling, but isn’t that just more reason to come here and escape if even for a moment?
I’m in a different Timezone to most so I know that makes a difference, however that never used to be a problem. I started a thread yesterday, something I thought would be fun, something that has been done in the past and people joined in on and seemed to enjoy. I logged in today and only two other had played ( thankyou @SweetLesGirl and @Harley31 ) and that is a little sad.
I’m not really going anywhere with this post, it is only the little thought I had after logging in. I hope the fun can be found again, but I’m really beginning to doubt that.

edit. As I posted this @DD_850 also added to the thread. Cheers to you

I can’t tell you how many times I have felt this. At the onset of the first lockdown i thought it would mean having the perfect excuse to spend more time on here. But thats not hoW everything functions i guess

No I doesn’t seem to.

We old timers have a different expectation i guess. Lol
Remember the good old days? Epic days. Absolute mad crazy. I bet you just couldn’t keep up with so much activity then and we missing it now.

I know hahaha it’s hard to explain to people what it was like.

For some this place is an escape, for some it is just fun, some come on to troll while some for passing the time. Whatever your reason, i hope this place made you smile. For me personally, i have special bond with a select few. I do not take these bonds lightly, i value them very much and dont shy away from telling them how much they mean to me.

I think my time here has run it's course. This place is a weird enigma. A gathering of misfits trying to find and/or add something to their existence in this world.

I will forever be thankful to the voices who spoke to me with reason and kindness. I've met so many great people here, whether we still speak or not. I'm not gonna lie, this place has also done some damage to me emotionally and mentally. As a result, over time, my visits here grew fewer and far between. In those blocks of time I find myself really trying to dig deep to get to know myself, what my needs are, and to use those as tools to grow.

For me, at this point in time, I don't have the kind of strength to see this place as I used to; as a place to escape to. I would too easily lose myself in its whimsy and ephemeral nature (even though the internet is forever lol). In my blocks of time being away, I'm realizing the things I need to do for myself can't be done here. That's not a diss on this place, because I still learned so much about not only other people, but about myself as well.

This place can be great if you let it, it just isn't great for me now.

And look, I know this isn't an airport lol, but I also just wanted to use this as a way to remind you that self-reflection is so important. It's okay to take time to yourself (and maybe this place is that time you've chosen for yourself). Being vulnerable and looking inward for your wants and needs will give you more clarity than any kind of feedback you can gain from anyone else.

I'll be around to say bye if you'd like (there are so many new people that this may not be anything lol, and if so, then the last paragraph before this one is for you <3).

It's been good FCN and I wish y'all the best .

You were a positive and genuine presence here. All the best to you too, Cali.

That is the best kind of love when you find somebody in the most unconventional of places. I wish nothing but the best for you and truly hope everything works out because it is amazing!

Absolutely agree, thank you! I hope all the best to you and Heidi, as well.

 

[Fildo66]

Absolutely agree, thank you! I hope all the best to you and Heidi, as well.

Thank you. We definitely give hope that these relationships can work. We’ve been together over three years now and it is amazing. I wish nothing but the best for you and yours.
