(1,874 posts)They didn't ignore the situation, and Pete's pain as a child who lost a parent to terrorism was sincere. It made me a little uncomfortable to witness--which I think was intentional and necessary. His comment about the value of humor sounded like a promise that he needs to make to himself on a regular basis. It was humbling to watch him make the choice to keep going.

(26,459 posts)A bit weird - a bit too far out there sometimes - but what he said was from his heart.

Sure, he's not like everyone else, but you'd be hard pressed to find a single person who loves me who doesn't say I'm not like other people.
I never judge people for being unusual. They're my people.
I almost forgot, thanks, sweet friend!
