wolven7Tonight has been alternately beautiful and shitty. Wandered around Little Five with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mech_angel, and that was awesome. Bought a bunch of books, and a few comics. Saw some people i've not seen, in far too long. Then we met up with mr_hinzelmann, came home, and watched "In the Mouth of Madness."
Then I talked to my baby sister, and she's beginning to feel burnt out, and stressed, which, considering her circumstances, is understandable. But it still sucks.
People are feeling left out of festivities, without warning, in conjunction with people screwing around with things that I love, in manners that may well cause them harm.
And then there's people harming people about whom I care, if only tangentially, which will almost certainly cause the former parties harm.
We go through life, and we find certain things that make us whole, that help us through the days, and the pain. These things build threads, in our minds and in our hearts, and we use them to help us support ourselves, when nothing else can. When we aren't strong enough to do it, ourselves. When something threatens these things, we realise exactly how important they are, and we do whatever is necessary to protect them. Not only for our own sake, though it may sound as cold as that, but for their own sakes. They matter because they exist, and we realise that the most, in their moments of peril.
As friends, all we can do, in these situations, is strive to be one of those threads that holds, and tries to mend the rest, when we can.
I'll see you all later.
