What's the mystery? 

This makes me think of the R.E.M. song- "Everybody Hurts".  Sad thing is, this roller coaster is only a ride, and all rides must end.  Maybe the important thing is to get the "seasonal pass" and not just enough to ride the "carni" coaster just once!  I decided awhile ago that I don't want to be the one riding on the coaster, I would rather be the guy making sure the ride goes smooth for everyone else.  Joy is the perfect replacement for saddness, how you find your joy really matters!  Everybody must know that they bring happiness to others.  I saw your blogs through a mutual friend, and i have enjoyed them!  Thanks for bringing some happiness into our lives!!!!! 

I hope this does not mean that you are saying goodbye to chess.com. This would make me very sad, as I have thoroughly enjoyed your witty, humorous, and thoughtful writings. If you are expressing a broken heart due to a recent loss, then I fully commiserate with you as I have experienced this all too often. Yes, your heart does heal through the passage of time though much scar tissue gets left behind. I have found that these scars actually add a great deal to your character as they enhance your enjoyment of each moment as you realize that nothing lasts forever. Without love and heartbreak, life would be terribly empty...
