Been looking quite a few titles with members announcing they are leaving the forum. So maybe it is time, time to let go of our fight to keep this forum active and alive. Rather than seeing this forum dying a slow and painful death, and then the announcement of forum closure I suggest we may as well fix a date. The date to request the Mods to close the forum, that is when we know any alternative forum can be ready after that. Killing once and for all is much better than slow death.
Second thing, I thought we were a family- RagNa family. Regardless of any difference in cultures of families, I guess one thing is common in most families. Everyone know that value of mutual love in each heart of family. When all of us live under one roof, at one place, do we need to ask or tell our family members that we miss you? Is it not understandable that we all love each other? It is when distances are created, physical or otherwise words, Miss You are required. So yes, to all those members who have left or are thinking of leaving We Do Miss You Now, because you no longer live under the same roof.
One thing more in a family: Even if loads of differences are there between us, or our thinking doesn't match, or even if one of us hurt some other family member, family still sticks together. Even if a rough patch comes, we sort it out do not break relation. Analysing this I would think either the members who are leaving never considered themselves a part of this family; or their love for family wasn't strong enough. And if any of us hurt them, I would like to say sorry on behalf of all the members because, first attempt should always be to save family. If after this anyone goes, I won't stop her because I would respect her wishes, even if I'll be sad for my family.
We all love each other and that is implicit. Everyone experiences low phases, I have also felt low sometimes. I would pray for God to give us all strength of love in such times.
ONE MORE THING: Can anyone make a thread for members who have left; and who feel ignored or low otherwise? By rotation we can post "Missing You", "love you notes" & messages for such ignored-feeling wale members! Just to let them know we remember them. Maybe then they'll feel they're a part of family! Anyone who can improvise on this idea?
Lastly For All Members Who Are Leaving: -
You were a part of me and I was a part of you I'd thought,
Maybe I failed to assess it was something else you sought.
You're hurt and you want to leave me forever it seems,
But trust me, when I look at your name my heart still beams.
We Love You and Shall Love You Forever.
