User blog:BachLynn23/As Seasons Pass, Another Good Friend Leaving Us

''“Friends are an integral part of your life, but every friend you have must live life at their own pace. When the time comes & they must leave you, there is no need to grieve over their parting from your life. It is the very essence of life that it should be so. But it hurts nonetheless and we grieve nonetheless, but we hold them in our hearts forever. Always cherish the joy, laughter, memories and love that they have brought into your lives. Always remember them with a warm smile for what they have given you.”''

I have no idea why Kari has found it necessary to leave the wiki, but I found the news on my talk page when i signed on today. Kari has been with us since April. Despite being in a time zone 12 hours ahead of a lot of us, she touched and brightened many of our lives. I have no idea if she will read these words, but I hope she does. And I urge all of you to leave messages here wishing Kari well and telling her what she meant to you. Though she feels the need to part ways now, I hope she knows that she will always have a place here if she ever wishes to return, and grace our lives with her presence once more. Until then I wish her well in all that she does and I wish her luck and good fortune in all that she strives for.

May the road rise to meet you May the wind be at your back May the sun shine down warm upon your land May the rain fall soft upon your face until we meet again

You will be missed.BachLynn (Send an Owl! ) 14:37, November 1, 2011 (UTC)
