less than a month! Lost Curt Guldenshue not exactly but almost a month ago but then found out yesterday that "Lady Elaine" or "Celeste Heldstab" my 1st mentor had passed away Beltane evening! Just in the middle of the night... things were just now after years and years and of fighting and striving they had reached their goal and really going good then this? Hard for me to understand. Curt made a wee bit more sense no less heartbroken or missed but he had major health problems which helped make it a little bit more expected and understandable but... Celeste? shakes head.....

She was the one I met first back in 2002? or 3? when the internet had just got past the BBS stage (whenever that was) and was my first intro to true magic.
Besides being sad at losing them (and of course many others) I am angry!
(I don't understand I don't have a right to be angry.. confused) why am I so angry? It is not like I interacted daily or almost daily like I do here so why am I feeling this so strongly? I don't have the right really but I am... so, so angry.

didn't cry when my own family members passed but I am so torn over these strangers passing.... shakes head....
