Yikes Glisteners sorry to bring things down but I’m having trouble shaking a disturbing dream that two of my younger cousins committed suicide in separate incidents. Just a dream but it felt so real. Last week the 7month old brother of one of my son’s classmates died suddenly, just too much to soon (Watching bridge to Terabithia with my wife and kids last night probably didn’t help either). Just needed to write this somewhere to get it out of my head loop.

Shared and hopefully at least halved among the Glistenership @DaybreakTheTeacher. Your subconscious is probably alarmed at a reminder of how fragile seemingly vital things are.
