Sad Announcement

Bear, I never talked with you and I just joined this week. I know you might not read this post but then again, you might will come back. I know how you feel. You worked hard on going to this trip. Were you part of a team to organize a deaf camp week or something like that? If you were, then why not you tell that person to bug off and YOU can handle this with out that sore loser who cancelled it on you.

Bear, I know how you feel. When I was a teenager, I tried to organize a roller skating party for my deaf classmates from our mainstreamed hearing high school. They never came. I felt they never really wanted me so you know what I did? I didnt hang with them after high school graduation. I didnt go to my high school reunions. Nothing! They are in my past. I moved on in many different ways ever since. I tried to make new deaf friends in NTID but that was another story. I said forget them. Then had deaf girlfriends and at least one HOH girlfriend throughout the 90s and early 2000s. I do not go to deaf events at all because they are the same losers I went to school with.

I am happy where I am today. I have deaf friends from Miami, Central America...they love me! Really nice people. There are other deaf people YOU can meet online here, Bear. Or offline in another town!

As for the skating party.. that rink is closed and missed skating. Oh well!

I also tried to have my bible study and no deaf people came. Only hearing people when my best friend was alive. He passed away due to cancer. He was popular but he helped me with my bible study.

Now I do not have one and I dont make too much of a fuss about people not coming.

Because people say they will come to my parties, they do not come and asked me to come to theirs? I dont come to theirs anyway. Just keep trying with NEW crowd of deaf people. There are people HERE that care about you, Bear. Just do not run away to an island. A figure of speech meaning just do not run away from problems. Face it.

I will pray for you, Bear.

Bear, I am happy with what I have now. Maybe some more new friends here I will make. Bear, you missed meeting someone new like me!! Or any future deaf members in here.
 
First of all I really wish the trip was still on because I was making plans to come this year and bring my whole family. Secondly I don't wanna get in the middle of it but I do wanna say something. Sasha, I don't think this should in any way be your fault, there is just ONE of you and MANY of us. Plans shouldn't get cancelled because of ONE person's decision. There will always be some kind of conflicts where eventually we would have to chose. Weddings may be once in a lifetime, trips can always come and go. If you really want to go to this wedding, I would understand because you may never get another chance at it. Just do what you think is important to you even though both may be important, we all have to realize that you won't always be able to put a smile on everyone's face even if you want to. Real friends would understand the position your in and give you space to decide and I'm giving you that even though I would really like to meet you this year I can always wait for the right time to come if it ever comes. ~.~

Bear, I hope your still out there reading, I'm not trying to make you look less important or anything like that. The last time I was at your place I had a wonderful time. I've been trying to make it this year but you know how it is for me. I do have vacation time coming and I'm too in a position where I have to decide whether to fly back to Trinidad and see my family whom I haven't seen for like 7 years now..ugh! Thats a long time heh. Actually I have 4 things that I need to do and the camping trip is one of them, don't even know if I can do it all seeing now that they are all important I may have to chose. You said there were many reasons behind the cancellation and thats understandable. Wanting to move on and pay more attention to your own family is the right decission, I'll back you up on that 100% and I hope all of that works well for you. I do hope you don't shut us all out because of something else that's happened which I have no idea of so I do hope you will get in touch with me soon because I want to send you something in the mail.
You are right though..you've been planning things all on your own so it must be very frustrating looking forward to some people coming and then when the date gets closer some kind of conflict happens. Thats gotta be a bummer. It would be awesome if you had help too. If I had the right job and lived nearby I would gladly have helped given the time. Much love 2 u, hope you hadn an awesome christmans and will have a very blessed year this time.

Anyways, I will let SSP know about the cancellations. I hope that whatever you decide will work out better for you and help you succeed in whatever you set out to do..love always.
 
LOL, sorry for posting the same msg twice..I'm getting used to this thing!! Love ya'll.. peace.



{Mod Edit: That's ok, no problem--duplicate post was removed...over time as you navigate here in AD, you'll no doubt get better. ;) ~RR}

Bear was really frustrated because the camp been cancalled. i can see her feelings. She leave AD for good.. I hope she will come back anytime soon.
 
Maybe over some time, Bear will return to us.. if she does decide, we will welcome her back here with open arms and have good times once again... let Bear deal with this on her own time and she can decide whether to come back or not.... we'll support her somehow...

Thanks for ur wonderful comments and what u said in there is soo true and yes i will be thinking about what is the best for me. Like u said only one of me and many of you is so true and it saddest me to see the camp cancelled where many of u really wants to go. I pray and hope that things could have been different but unfortunately it wasnt to be.

I also pray and hope that Bear will come back and that she will be still welcome with open arms like Northstar said as i dont hold any grudges at all against her it was just a very unfortunate situation but i believe in let bygone be bygone and move on with our lives.

Thanks everyone for sharing ur thoughts and comments in this posting.
