So it was you! It was lovely, thank you.

Thank you for making moroside even better this year. Thank you for the wonderful poem, the great gifts, the tribute to the bears we will all miss so much. Thank you for returning..... You really have been missed and the lair just wasn't the same without you. Love you dear friend and I am so glad to be a bear. Thank you!

I should be used to it but this time it was directed at my son so not so happy, but just going to it ignore it when they go back to school next week and move on. Thankfully i have hubby who is super supportive

Perfect, love! ❤

❤ you have a beautiful heart

....quote..."Sadly we cant change what others really are." i will take solace in that. i know when i have done wrong even if it is only in hindsight hahah

I love outside! Diving for fish, running nekkid through the grass in Spring (those of us who are small and fur covered can do that with impunity--LOL) hiking with Welly, and cooking over a campfire. (Yes, you heard right, I can cook things outside over a bed of coals because it doesn't require shudder boiling anything[/i] ).

I especially love looking up at the stars and naming all the star pictures, like the Drinking Gourd, the Lady Enthroned, The Lion, The Bear, The Hunter, The Hare, The Hunter's Dog, The Spider, The Serpent to name a few. I love recalling all the stories that our foremothers and forefathers have passed down through the generations about the meaning behind all the names. There are stars that move in the sky too, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Venus and Mercury. The Loremaster says that these stars are worlds like our world, but we are skeptical, they are too small to be a world.

The moon is another thing altogether. We know that men have been to the moon and that is very exciting to us. There is a face in the moon and as children, we were told that the face is that of a young badger-maid who committed the ultimate sacrifice of herself to save the badger-lad she had chosen to be her mate. When she failed, the angels transported the two lovers to the moon and she watches over all badger-loves to protect them from the same fate while he looks out toward the heavens from the other side of the moon. This is why all clans of the Mustelids, badgers, weasels, etc. plight their troths during a full moon.

Alas...I digress.

Thank you for your love and generosity. You are loved and you are precious to me.

, thank you again for the gifts and the song.

I was without internet, your anon gift was a nice welcome back thank you so much!

Your thoughts are so true! I sit back and think of the things that have knock me down to my very core. But I was raised by a strong woman my Mom, and was blessed with 2 other strong women that were Mom in my eyes from the first time we met. All 3 taught me to stand up dust off and live another day of life with purpose and family. Such as we have in the lair! My motto life isn’t easy and it’s full of trials and tribulations. But the love of family and friends make life worth it.

I know life has thrown you several curve balls. But you don’t have quit in you, I know it’s been rough lately. Know we are all here, and expect you to show up for roll call frequently even if it’s just a wave. Okay man code, sock in the arm things are going to work out hang in there!

That was a lovely present and poem/song and a very sweet way to honour those who have passed too early. Thank you, . <3

Thank you for the lovely gifts and song and the beautiful message and remembrance behind it.

My dear bro, it saddens me to read about the hell you have been experiencing. Without knowing your particulars, it may be time to change doctors. A fresh outlook, new eyes to see whats being missed or whats being overly diagnosed for you. Too much medication can yield the same results as the wrong medication. You don't need to be the victim.

Something that simple can make a remarkable change in both health and spirits. Research your conditions and what they are giving to you. Not always are the doctors correct. Sometimes we, ourselves, can find the tiniest of errors and things overlooked because we have the extra time to do the thorough searching. If you know something isn't feeling right, say something. If the answer you get does not bring about a solution, its Gods way of saying ask someone else. (Until you do get satisfaction or change).

I will add you to a very widespread prayer list, along with my own personal list of prayer, that you may find the inner comfort and peace you so deserve. Don't you ever give up! Always ask questions. Always write responses down; names, numbers, etc...and get copies of all of your medical records and go over them.

I believe in miracles Duane. I believe because I was the recipient of one, when Drs. had no hope. You HAVE hope. You KEEP being hopeful! and you keep being verbal.

Peace & Love Bro <3

I echo what said...
