I join everyone else in extending my prayers and best wishes to Meteor Blades and his family, and the other victims of this accident.
As Welshman noted, when we spend so much time together, we do begin to feel like an extended family- only one that actually keeps in touch.
It is a blow to hear this news. And my hope is health, safety, and peace of mind for everyone that has been impacted.
May your soul shine it’s light,
and guide you through the darkest night.
And let this light shine bright,
for they will need this light,
to brighten their darkest nights.
Of all the possible thousand diaries I’ve read over the last 3 or 4 years one diary still stands out in my mind and heart(which I’ve saved) and become sort of a personal touchstone for me. It was by Meteor Blades and it is called ‘Freedom Summer’. It reminds me of the goodness and decency that is out there.
I was up all night due to my own personal problems and finally decided I might as well turn the computer around 4 this morning and check out Booman.
Then I felt like I’d been kicked in the gut seeing Welshman’s diary and my health problems seemed puny for now.
In ‘Freedom Summer’ Meteor mentions he is part Seminole so I spent the next 2 or more hours trying to find a Seminole or Native American prayer that seemed fitting. However nothing really ever seems fitting when one hears something like this.
This is as close as I could come with a short prayer by White Eagle(didn’t say what tribe, just White Eagle)
When you are in doubt, be still, and wait;
When doubt no longer exists for you, then go forward with courage.
So long as mists envelope you, be still;
Be still until the sunlight pours through you and
dispells the mists.
—as it surely will
Then act with courage.
I am hoping for the best for everyone for all involved.

Incredibly sad news
My thoughts are with Meteor.
May your soul shine it’s light,
and guide you through the darkest night.
And let this light shine bright,
for they will need this light,
to brighten their darkest nights.
My hopes, thoughts, and prayers are with you.
