I'm leaving. Mainly

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

I'm leaving. Mainly

I'm leaving. Mainly because I just don't have any time to come on, and I feel guilty committing to things and then not being able to participate. Also, I've kind of been gone for the past... at least a few weeks, and as far as I can tell, no one's noticed.

I won't be completely gone. I'll probably check in occasionally, when I have time, but not too often. And I'll try to be back February 14, 2019. Until then, bye.

I understand if you feel you truly must go...but I'm so sorry to hear that! I am in the same boat, I haven't come on much and when I do I don't say much. But I hope you change your mind! A few weeks isn't that long for someone to notice or not notice. Those of us who aren't active everyday often get passed by and unnoticed. Sadly, I don't know half of the CBers on here. I only really know the ones I've RPed with or had interactions with, but that doesn't change anything!

There will always be a place here for everyone, as far as I am concerned...and if ever you feel that you can once again fill that place, and bring your wonderful bright whiskers around the CB, I hope to the sky and back that you will! If you choose not to, which is your choice, and yours alone, and naturally I will respect that choice, I hope you have a wonderful and beautiful life off of the CB. Good luck, and may the cats be with you! <3

Oh...

Oh no. Oh dear.

I'm gonna miss you so much, Kitten. I won't beg you to stay, because I understand why you have to go, but I wish you didn't. The CB won't be the same without you. Please do come back and visit whenever you can. I'm sure you'll have a warm welcome. 

Farewell, friend.

That's unfortunate. Alas, but we must live as best we can, and if you need to focus elsewhere, I trust your choice.

I think we don't notice unannounced absences because they're subtle; quiet gaps, like something stolen unnoticed, because it was always there before and took care of itself. People take short breaks all the time, so it's hard to tell when those are being extended and why. The squeaky wheel gets the oil and all that. They're not meant to be an insult. It's just hard to see that something's wrong if no one says anything about it; and of course you can't tell us if you're gone.

Come back soon! We may not see the full extent of the gap where you used to be, but I know we'll feel it. I did.

Goodbye...

Thank you all for your caring and inspiring words! I'm going to miss you. I'm planning on popping in whenever I get the chance, though, so hopefully I won't be too far gone.

Wait, I said basically all of that in the thread already, didn't I? Oh, bleh, I'll just post anyway.
