Someone I've known since about forever was murdered in Iraq yesterday. I don't know how to react to it, frankly. Steve lived on the 4th floor of my building in NYC forever with Lisa. They were the cool people I liked to hang around when I was a teenager. I still dream about being in their apartment actually. I had a crush on Steve way back when - as much as someone could on a guy that was older and married to the coolest chick ever - a chick you looked up to because she was the only one I'd ever met that was taller than I was. And plus she always wore black and dyed her hair black. East village lovely. I respected the hell out of them. They took me in and helped out when I needed it... God, they were together forever and so so so very nice. I have to send Lisa something but what the **** do you send someone when somethingl ike this happend? I mean he's a ******* journalist. WAS. WAS a ******* journalist. My building in NYC is surrounded by reporters and FBI... and my brother is being followed by black FBI cars because they're watching everyone in the building... my dad won't leave the building so the reporters won't bug him. holyshit ------------------
And always I think where we might have gone If we'd never met inside this song Our names are enciphered But the words became true When I was the sun and you, you were the moon And there were the stars That helped to navigate our souls

You'll be getting a message from Steve, pay attention, and God Bless. He really loves you(he lives on). Please be there for Lisa, your connected now more than ever.

I know who you are talking about. I am so sorry  Things happen in life that we can't understand.
He is at peace now.
If you need to talk I will be here. I send my heart out to you and all his loved ones 
It angers me also.

Wow. First off, my love, you have my sympathy and my love. I am here if you need me to chat or talk or even meet up if you are still in NYC to listen and be there. Reading this hits home and breaks my heart so I can imagine how you feel  What can you say to her? What can you do? Ironically (please forgive me for the corny comparison but your post somewhat reminded me of this)when I watched Felicity today, it just happened to be back on the first episode of syndication. Felicity would make "talk tapes" to her old French instructor Sally. Sally was sort of a recluse . . .she was starting her life anew. Hew fiance was killed three months before their wedding in a motorcycle accident. I know these are two completely different scenarios but they strike the same question in me. What the hell would I do? What could I do for someone close to me that has gone through this. Tell her you are here for her and MEAN IT (although I KNOW you'll mean it, but most people don't). That will suffice. Check up on her also . . . All my love, mami. I will say a prayer for you and yours before I retire to bed.  Marcia IP: Logged |

Mystic Gemini and I posted messages at the same time. I see that as a small sign, perhaps a sign stating that you must tell Lisa what we have told you. That we are here

I think I'm knocked off balance a bit more than I thought I'd be. how ******* strange...I did send her something today that will get there Friday. I sent it to my father and brother's apartments, though, so they can go downstairs and give it to her -- i imagine she won't be answering her buzzer, you know? I sent a zen garden because there are rocks and potted plants.. i hate cut flowers that die. I'll send her a letter later in the week. I'm drinking wine now. how very strange... I don't really knwo how to react or even if I'm suppsoed to be as sad as I am. IP: Logged |

Please hang in there, zen garden, you went with your heart, good for you. If there is anything I can do for you, please let me know. I see everyone is here for you. With death comes rebirth, and don't forget, I really feel you'll be getting a message, even if it's a scent...IP: Logged |
