When you contribute to the Life and Death of something ...

Once, LiveJournal was a living, breathing thing.  Filled with life, energy and most of the time, a safe place.   A place where for the most part, folks were "neighbors", even friends.

We all gave it life, watched it grow.

And then I, and 1000's of others began to deliver the 1000's of little cuts.

Stopped updating.  To busy.  Just not in the mood.  What's this new thing?  Oh, easy pictures, follow, Likes!  Neat.

How long has it been since I wrote? Heck, did I forget to install the Phone App?  Is there a phone app?

Lets run back.  Lets write!  Lets... hang on.. Flashy.

Huh.  I only see a page of comments.  Wonder why.

Post a coming back message.

Get no comments.  Check back in a bit.

OH! One of my favorite people is writing.  I have so wondered what happened to them.  I should .. I'll get back to it.

Wow... things look different.  What happened to my status?  Shrug .. who knows.  What? Somethings wrong.  I can't see more than a comment.

What this?  New Status?  Oh!  Last Posts of friends... 1 year ago.. 2 years... lots of 5's 6's.  What?  That long?  10 years?  15years??? Really.

It is odd that I don't see more headstones.  I'm thinking the Caretakers hardly bother to clear the grass.
