An announcement

[grim23]

My friends, brothers and sisters:

My time to spend time with people is becoming steadily less due to both professional demands and personal choices that I both had and still have to make, starting this past weekend. I anticipate that I will have to continue to make many hard choices for the next few weeks that will effect my life for the next several years, and I will be unlikely to have much time for many of my friends for some time.

I am an honorable man, and I will have to make many decisions that will result in alienating some people, and will probably cause me some heartbreak and definitely regret. Many of the relationships that I have with many of the people on Tribe and elsewhere may have to change, as well as many of the things that I personally count on for support and identity, and many of the things and people that I enjoy.

I am a Warrior, and I do not fear change. I strive to face change, head on, with fire in my eye and my sword raised high. Please understand that these changes have been manifesting for some time, and this weekend was my awareness of the changes. This is not about anyone of you, this is about me.

Thank you.

Love,
Grim

I already responded in Tribe... but just in case you don't see that... the gist is... it's ok. The people who care about you will understand. Do what you need to do, fight on Brave Warrior, and know you are supported and loved, even if it must be from a distance :)

Bugger. Call me when you're local and free. And my couch is always open to you (unless someone is already on it, in which case there's a hide-a-bed in Son1's room). ;)

And on a me, personally, note: I really appreciate you making this announcement. It makes your unavailability both understandable and less in discord with expectations. I may have mentioned before that it isn't what happens, it's whether I expect it or it surprises me. So, Thanks.

You ARE an Honorable Man and a Warrior.

And I love you quite deeply, and support everything you do, knowing you are following the calling of your heart. Although I've missed you lately, it only makes me more grateful for the time we do have togehter. Always here for you, in spirit and in person....

I hope this is for good reasons and not just because you have to. I can understand how it's difficult though, Frosty and I've had to make some difficult decisions last fall about our time and where it's spent and we had to decide to cut some things out. You always wonder if it's the best decision and if those whom you'll leave aside will understand. But in the end, you've got to take care of you.

"It's not about you... it's about me!"

Isn't that the oldest break-up line in the book? ;-)
