Where have all

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

Where have all

Where have all the Chatterboxers gone?

Why does it feel like this world is falling apart?

I am so grieved

when someone leaves.  

Why does our world have to change? 

I feel like our world is fading fast

with friendships that never last.

And wars that start,

It breaks my heart. 

To see so many have to leave! 

I am thinking about leaving myself.

Because of issues that can't- or won't- be helped. 

I'm sorry,

But I worry,

That this place will never be the same.

back to the Chirp at Cricket

Don't wail over what's been lost; be grateful for what you still have.

I know, I know, I shouldn't wail, I should be grateful. I know. But right now, there's a lot of sadness on the CB, and it's just..... Sad. I'm sorry, I just needed to get that out.

That's fine and all, but I believe we should be glad that not everyone's gone. There are still plenty of wonderful people like St, Ronan, Leafpool, and you, Leeli, to keep us happy. *pats back awkwardly* It'll be fine.

That pats back awkwardly part made me brain chuckle. XD Yes, I see what your saying. Right now, I'm having some sadness about this, but I still have a rational side, and I get that I still have other CBers, and that not everyone is gone. That's why I'm confiding in you guys. I'll bounce back.

Yes, Leeli. That is very true. And I worry, too. I'm sure I'm not the only one. Thank you, for voicing our sorrow so beautifully.

Not to interuppt or anything, but because we are on our way to make the CB a happy place again,when I saw this post, I thought it was going to but about VeggieTales. 

Because there is a silly song called "Where have all the staplers gone?" I thought this was going to be a parody or something. XD 

I you haven't heard it, BTW, you should! Its so funny!! :)
