It has been a long strange week. The pain and loss of a person I had never met has colored so much of my life this week.
The near loss of a dear friend has shaken me in ways I did not think possible.
I need sleep.
I need knowledge that I do not, nor likely ever will have.
I need to be ... just be for a little while.

Near Miss
So last night a dear friend, whom I also love greatly, had a near miss.
His girl went to talk to her ex. To get things squared away before she and my friend continued their talks of marriage. They had already moved in together and were building a life.
I guess the ex didnt like that. So he shot her in the head and set his house on fire. Then, from her phone he starting txting break up messages to my friend.
He and I talked on the phone as he was packing a few things to go stay at his old place for the night. He got back to his place safe and sound and while he was upset with her ... he planned on having a talk with her today after work.
That of course didnt happen. In fact, the crazy ex went looking for my friend and burned her house down too. I thank the gods that he was not home but safely in his bed at the old place.
The light in this is that the crazy ex is also dead. He took his own life after calling the police.
I got the call this morning from him that she was dead ... that he had lost nearly everything. I hope though that he can hold on to the fact that he is alive. That he has friends and that he is loved.
"Love and light and hope for thee,
Now and ever my wish shall be."

New Things
Well alot has happened over the last few months which is why I have been so quiet.
First off I am single. Alan/Reaz and I ended our relationship at the first of the year. This happened for several reasons and was a long time coming.
I am now studying with a Druid Grove here in Columbus. I must say I really enjoy the people and the seriousness with which they take their commitment to their path. I am also grateful for the humor they bring with them. It is a very nice balance. I could have a home here in the Grove, and that is very attractive to me right now.
I am also living with my heart sister and her husband, who is slowly working his way toward becoming a heart brother in earnest. I have not had friends with the kind of faith in me that these two show in a very long time. I have missed it.
Slowly but surely I am finding myself again. I am finding my passion for life and the love for myself that I had misplaced. I have to say the year really is off to a great start.
Love and Light, Stand and Fight
