@holoz0r your title amazed me, nine year really a long time and you say it take a quarter of your life! And you still here with your great feeling. People come and go but Their interaction with others remain our mind as memory
You say
Over one hundred and fifty accounts and their ideas, their aspirations, their dreams, gone from this platform. Had they lost their keys? Had they lost their lives? Even worse, had they lost hope?
My journey to this platform is not so long, but my one of favorite task is visit others profile,read and take experience because I'm newcomer, and when i see any profile that active one or two or three years ago i think like you thay "are they dead?" they came here with hope, share emotions and just go!
You also notice that
silence is the worst possible thing
I totally agree with this, we should speak,we should express oud emotion,our work,our supportive for others, support each other is originally started from the beginning of the human life in this worlds.
Finally I like your post, the style of expression, you remember everyone who create value to your life from this platform,who first interact with you, that proves you have good heart. Thank you share your post with us and hope have a Great Day!
Every year, we may lose a few more people, but we'll never lose what they contributed.
This post, and all the comments I've gotten on it, remind me of that.
I think the most beautiful one that I've had is that instead of looking at it as loss, I should look at it as all the people that I haven't met yet.
I really love your perspective,Instead of focusing on the people we lost, looking forward to all the amazing people we haven’t met yet is such a beautiful and positive way to see things. This mindset truly keeps the journey meaningful and hopeful. Thank you for sharing such inspiring words!
