You wrote something in one of your first dozen posts or so on here that has stayed with me. You essentially said we, who post on this thread, treat each other well and we seem to actually like each other as people.
Since I agree with you that those who post here are treated with more respect and their opinions valued, than on most threads, I've been wanting to post this song for you.
"The Chain," - Fleetwood Mac - the only song ever co-written by the five members of FM who recorded Rumuors: Lindsey Buckingham, Mick Fleetwood, Chris McVie, John McVie and Stevie Nicks.
Performed as the first song of all concerts Fleetwood Mac playlists, From my POV, they deliver a strong message each time about NOT letting others, or obstacles etc., breaking them apart. While their interpersonal break-ups within the band are well documented, given other factors in their lives, I think this song united them as a band against the beliefs some others had (or didn't) about them, and their ability to succeed.
" And if you don't love me now
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chain."
Think about belonging to a group of those who post here. Do you promise to "Never Break the Chain"? Will you be a link that helps hold the group together in this thread? I hope so.

RIGHTEOUS Brother!!! I LOVE this song!
:wash dishes and cleans to the beat of this song before going to work,
mark off a day on the calender, looks over at the sleepin MMC but kinda
worried since NKorea shot off a short-ranged missile today. I felt something
was gonna happen when Gerania had that underwater dream:
I hope I can contribute and keep us strong like yall do. I dunno what
I can do really since I'm probably less in the wisdom department
than everybody else. I have to think hard to get to a direction
that maybe we could try out like me and Apryl had some days ago.
I feel important here, and important to some people here like Apryl
and MMC for sure and Ms. Rare too and to NewtoCA since he gave
that awesome story and Alexus who helped us not feel alone.
See....people can always talk but can they "give", something
of themselves thats really real. It's like the difference between
the plastic toys of today and playing with a toy that was made
100 years ago....maybe I'm just being weird. But some people
can say this is just words in a forum but you know what? I'm
a beggar and I ain't choosy. I'll take some words and make a
new world for me and Apryl and MMC and people like us.
:realize I'm off track and get back on: sorry for going on...
sure!
You've Come So Far, RF Silver, in Such a Short Time. You'll Never Be, "Alone."

Glad you liked the music, RF Silver. You sound like a great helper at household chores....
You got the point exactly - can people give of themselves, even when they think they have nothing left to give, or don't know what to give another? The gifts of truth, emotional honesty with one's ownself and others, plus admitting what you do or don't know are treasure that some people never learn in life. You've got natural gifts; you are just starting to get in touch with them.
News Flash: You give, RF Silver. Besides those you mentioned above, you give to me. You've given me a fresh perspective of understanding. How could one give to another anything better than truth, emotional honesty and new understanding?
You really don't go off track, you follow your feelings. Feelings take us on journeys that aren't straight roads.
In honor of you being so emotionally honest with your feelings here, in honor of your hometown and to honor you, one of my favorites as the feelings surround during this song. You display such growth in such a short period of time. You will never be, "Alone," as others are drawn to your ability to address feelings so directly and honestly.
Nice to see your post. Think I was on a bit of a Fleetwood Mac/Stevie Nicks kick yesterday? Yes, still wishing I could have used my ticket and gone to the show. But, I was needed elsewhere, as you know. Glad to say we're past the hospital phase now.
I appreciated you posting Stevie's breakout song, away from the Mac, with Tom Petty. She always gives him credit for grounding, her and encouraging her in her solo career.
From her high energy solo tours and recent DVD that starts with this song, here's "Stand Back,".

....do you enjoy national parks? last eve the local Public Television
showed a preview of Ken Burn's newest series:
The National Parks...
PBS PREVIEWS: NATIONAL PARKS | Extended Preview | PBS
.....one park was saved by poor people donating pennies...
another was saved by the descendants of slaves...
******
America is not sidewalks
America is not stores
America is not video games
America is not resturaunts
We need National Parks
so people can go there and say Ah This is America!
******
the value in the future
will be the past
right now this is the future of yesterday
****
... hoping this might be an inspiration for Thee ...
