Very sad. . .
I've been sitting here with madam_minnie and I'm sad. The two of us have been going through moments where all of sudden one or the other of us will say something and then she starts crying and then I start crying. Life seems very unfair sometimes and we're left asking the great, big question of why.
I'm sure that many of you have heard simons_flowerhas passed away today.
And once again we're reminded that the fandom where so many of us have settled and call home is a huge web of friendship that extends out as far as we can possibly imagine. It is a network that has brought us all together in a way people outside it can't fathom. We all touch each others lives and we all mean things to each other that is every bit as potent and palatable as the friendships we have walking throughout our day. In some ways these friendships are more potent because we've shared bits of our souls with each other and when we lose one of our own--it's like a piece of our soul is now missing.
She touched many lives and she will be missed so very much. Her stories made us warm and fuzzy when we probably needed a pick me up. Her work on The Quidditch Pitch offered us a haven where all were accepted. Her loyalty to her friends was something that impacted countless lives.
Please send good thoughts out to her family and friends--Please remember the girls at TQP who was mourning the loss of a sister. And most of all, remember that she had the most infectious laugh one has ever heard. Really, whenever I thought of Trisha, I remember her laugh that was so joyful and infectious it made one jealous that they couldn't harness that level of joy.
