Change is inevitable sometimes fortunately and sometimes unfortunately. I had no issues with @silverstackeruk and wish he could stay as a mod but his decision at the end of the day. For a community of mainly men, there is a lot of drama! and they say us women are drama! I don't really know what happened, just wish for everyone to learn to get along even if we disagree on some things. We all have opinions and I don't think anyone should feel like they have to censor themselves to please others but that's just me I guess.
I'm sorry to hear about your sorta uncle's passing. Difficult times we live in and not everyone finds the tools to cope with this craziness we call life. You are right when you say some get so caught up that they forget to see life's troubles as a learning opportunity to evolve and rise above rather than sit in despair and engage in self destructive behaviors. Sad nonetheless.
