You guys are great! Just reading through this almost brought me to tears. This is a rough and sometimes terrible world we live in but this has restored my faith in the power of friendship.
This may just be some old parts to you but to me its sooo much more.
After my wife passed away, I went through the range of emotions one could expect. I somehow landed in the Locker server and it gave me something to do again. My kids can only distract me for so long so once they're asleep, I'm back to being trapped in my head.
Once I was invited into teamspeak, I did something I hadn't done in months....i laughed!
You all could probably imagine the state of mind I was in at the time...
Wondering if I made her happy while she was here.
Wondering if I could feel anything again.
Wondering if I could find happiness without her.
In short, going absolutely crazy, but having myself feel enjoyment again...feel what its like to laugh again. Let me know its possible, with time, to be back to my old self.
While to you, it may have seemed like you just killed me with a flashbang or the bow. To me, it provided a small glimmer of hope because it made me feel something other than dread.
I know you probably didn't want to read a short novel but I needed to let you guys that participated how much of an impact just having someone to talk to made on me.
Thank you soo much for the help you've given me and I sincerely look forward to seeing you on the battlefield soon.
