I'm NOT a crybaby in person but I can't count the times something I've read has brought me to tears....and especially the RIP section. I can't read Rainbow Bridge Poem without losing it and I've read it many times....Not once have I got to the last sentence without needing a Kleenex.
At one time MY husband had actually asked me to stay away from that section of the site...but I HAVE to pay respects and will always read it even though it's very sad. Puppy Mill / abuse stories are also really affect me too.
The weekend we had 3 deaths here was the worst though. I think I cried on and off for 3 straight days.
| Okay, I don't know the details about She-Ra and I'll wait until tomorrow morning to investigate. Otherwise, I'll toss and turn all night. V, I know what your husband means... in all the time I've been here, I've only gone to the RIP section once or twice because I know I just can't deal!
I have to admit, though, that I'm always a softy when I know someone is in pain or turmoil. I had just joined YT shortly before the infamous weekend, and I was so devastated thinking that it might be a 'regular' weekend given the number of members here. Especially Brooke's story, because it was so close to home for me. Thankfully it's not the norm.
So if you don't see me post to pay my respects, please know that it's not because I don't care, it's because I care too much-if that's possible. |
