You are correct Colin and perhaps I need to stop crying, but I cannot. It is my great fortune that I have such good friends here on the Archive, here at my home, and close-by via the telephone.

Time will heal all wounds but this one is soooo huge that it will take time as you mentioned, before it becomes a dull ache.

I know it is difficult for many of the readers to understand why I continue to be so upset, but when you have met a man such a Bboy and become friends, and do some of the things we did together, a part of you dies with him. In my case, a lot of me died the night he did. This is not the way Bboy would have wanted it, but sorry Bboy, it is the truth.

There is not a day that goes by that I don't feel like falling down. I fell down the night I learned of Bboy's death and I had two wonderful friends who picked me up and tossed me into bed. I strive not to fall down again. This is my duty, pleasure, and obligation to the Archive, Shannon, work, friends, others.

Thank you again from the very bottom of my heart colin for answering georges question as I have very little energy at this moment and need alot of personal space. Soon I'll be back as strong as ever.

Tal,

One of the legacies which Bboy left was a community of friends. Don't be ashamed to accept help from those who can give it. While they are helping you to recover from the hurt, they will be hurting too and you are giving help to them as well. Surely this is the best way to honour the memory of someone who helped so many by providing this board.

LOL

Sorry not to have heard of BBoys death before but my computer has been semidead for three months so I have had troubles getting out in the world.

Another of my friends from the net passed away in September and we had a wake for him over the net and it was my first virtual funeral but as my friend lived on the east coast and I live in Sweden I wouldn´t really have been able to go to the real funeral.

Greetings

John
