I came into the thread a little late, and didn't start reading from the beginning (a bad habit of mine). I knew you were in Brazil, but I hadn't realized the exact reason... so I'd also like to apologize for having missed the initial post about your father and the reasons for your trip.
Beyond that, I wish I was better able to articulate to you how deeply my heart goes out to you. This is one of those situations where mere words don't seem adequate.
But you and your family
are in my thoughts and prayers, and I hope you're able to find solace during this extremely difficult time.
From the way you express yourself in your posts and from the pics you've posted, it's clear that you're a beautiful person inside and out.
I'm sorry I hadn't communicated that to you before. It takes me a while to really start conversing with people in a major way. It's not snobbery, but a remnant of my inherent shyness. I often take my time getting to know someone.
We can be a pretty overwhelming group of people here, and some of us are definitely a little too quick with the sarcasm and aggressive debates... which I know can intimidate people who are new to the fold.
But I think overall we're all good people. I think
most Ledgies are above "cliques," and immature behaviour such as that, and aren't meaning to exclude anyone at all as we talk to the people we've come to know over the years.
I hope you'll stay with us, and continue adding your thoughts and insights.
