Too many names and persons I learned to love and appreciate have gone indeed even if I'm a relative newbie still...

But there are also new people coming in - ones to become the household names and to become ones like those left. Like life it means coming and going; birth, blossoming and waning.

It leaves one with a quiet sadness of losing a friend but also with joy of meeting new people as a prospect of new friends.

I guess the internet-age is like this, just a bit faster our life-spans and real-life relations are (now I was betrayed to be the oldie I am!).

Miss you guys.

As the situation in Georgia deteriorates, I am sure I am not alone in holding Heren Istarion and his family in my thoughts and in being grateful that he is at least away from the immediate area of conflict.

You're not alone. Heren, you've got all my hopes and wishes...

Alas that my gratitude was misplaced due to faulty geography - looking at maps over the weekend shows he is more than close enough.

Just to let everyone who expressed concern about HerenIstarion - I received a PM from him early this morning:

All three comparably (say, to this morning's conditions) safe and surely sound. Hope it won't get worse than that.
Let's hope this dangerous situation in Georgia is soon resolved in a peaceful manner.
