A Somewhat Dramatic Exit But Life Is Like That. Goodbye all.
Dear Friends,
It's not easy to step away from such a community as this especially at a time when the very fabric of our Republic seems to be under unprecedented strain. Yet, it is the path I find myself on, and I must tread it with resolve, carrying with me the wisdom and insights I've gained from you all.
Before I go, allow me to leave you with a piece of counsel that I hold dear. In the coming months, our convictions, our beliefs, and the very essence of our democracy will be tested in ways we've never seen. A barrage of deception, the likes of which modern America has yet to witness, will seek to divide us, to blur the lines between truth and falsehood, right and wrong. In these times, it is imperative that we stand firm in our convictions, not swayed by the tumult of the times but guided by the principles that bind us to the cause of liberty and justice for all.
Here’s my farewell verse.
Within One Political Plaza, where minds met and clashed,
I found kinship, debate, where thoughts freely dashed.
Now, time calls me forth from this spirited fray,
Leaving behind the camaraderie of each day.
Though I step away, carrying your voices and views,
In the garden of memory, our discourse ensues.
Fare thee well, my companions in this digital space,
May our insights and friendships time never erase.
I wish you all the best,

That was a lovely poem.
I know you will be missed.
One last 🙏 for you and your beloved wife, for your health and happiness.
And a message "heard" this morning, while thinking of you:
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3:5&6
I will remember you and Mrs.123. May the Lord be with you always.

I got that pm from Bruce stating health reasons for both him and his wife and their future plans are the reasons for him leaving. I wished them both the best and expressed how much he will be missed.
