I wasn't sure what to write...so here is what I can offer: I am amazed at your loving attitude through this. You are a caring person....something I thought I was, until I read your response about this situation. I guess I still have much to learn about compassion, caring, and forgiveness. You teach yet another valuable lesson. I wanted you to know you are in my thoughts. I hope you are doing ok....(HUGS) Moof,

Also, I very much would like your opinion on some things I have posted about. When you get time come over and leave me a comment. Iam lost without your daily visits! Do it, if for no other reason than to shut me up. Because dear heart, I shall come everyday until you decide to visit me. I care very much for you and I'm not going any where.

All of us do not know where TNT has gone. Maybe you do or maybe you do not! Everyone is worried because ther is silence form your side. But I am not worried about you! I know you are strong! You have been very brave until now and thats the way to go. Irrespective of what TNT says or does we are here for you. TNT is an adult ...and I am sure she will take good care of her self. Worrying over her will not help bring her back. She will return when she wants to ...maybe you need to giver her sometime. Maybe you need to give yourself some time. maybe we all need to sit back and relax a little. What a tumultous week it has been! Well Moof, Life’s like that. All of us do not know where TNT has gone.

We have become good friends in a short period of time. I have read TNT's blog and comments about her and wish her the best - whoever she may be; however our friendship is far more important to me.
