I cannot bring myself to hit a like my brother...it pains me to read it in first place that you may be gone from here (I hope its not true, but I will likely resign to it fairly soon given you are not one that dithers)...and you have hinted to me and few others about the sapping nature here (given other more mundane but necessary stuff we all have to do outside here).
This forum both can be wondrous some times yet quite a cruel one other times....but she is always a beautiful landscape.... one that equally cheers you and haunts you when looking back.
You, django bhai, probably know better than anyone else here how many scars I have to show from this charming yet temperamental and fickle place. But maybe you didn't know it was you being here stoically that convinced me in the end to return when I thought about not coming back..... and always greeting my return from my forced exiles/time in the clink (largely because of where I come from rather than what I say)..... with a knowing grin, slap on the back and just a saddling back up after some drinks at the watering hole...to ride out into this wilderness once again along with the rest of our good chums here....and find new ways to play our ole games with the "law" around these parts.
When I am done with this place, since the reasons for me venturing back (whenever the "law" catches up with me here next) pretty much just halved with your departure....I will also look back and remember this song...
your song my friend...and any regrets I have will evaporate...
Know that I will forgive all the wrongs done to me here....but I won't ever forgive them for making you leave like this brother (if thats how it turns out to be)...never ever....for you have more class and good nature in your pinky than all of whoever
they are... combined...I can safely say!
Do sneak back and drop in from time to time for some catching up here (whenever you can manage it), just look at how many friends you have here and what they saying (I hope you read it all)...do not impose such a harsh absolute exile on them....thats what those
others want in the end.
You know where to reach me outside of here whenever you want to...so its not a farewell from me.
