I wasn't sure I wanted to check my "announcement" about Russell's death this morning, but I'm glad that I did. I want to thank you all for everything that you said. As much as anything could make me feel better at this point, it did.
I know that we all get a little tense sometimes over religious differences and I'm more guilty of that than anyone else. I think, after all this, that *everyone* here is a good person when it really matters - you don't get 70+ notes of empathy from a board full of bad people. I think, more than anything else, that being a nice person is the most important thing that we can do with our lives, and as such I feel like all of you are wonderful, beautiful people.
I welcome any and all thoughts and prayers (to any deity) and emails that anyone is willing to offer. I still feel very lost, alone, empty, sad, angry, guilty, and pained, which I'm told by the Grief hotline people is "normal". I'm glad for that, I guess, but it doesn't make it feel any better.
