The Loss of a Friend
8 years ago
Right, i never did one of these types of journals before. Never thought I would have to, but here goes.
A friend of mine who i've known for two years at our roleplay sim on Second Life has recently passed away since the 21st of January 2017. Galonodel was involved in a car accident and was reportedly dead on scene. I imagine that many people might have known him for different reasons, but i've always knew him for these things; a dedicated member of my administration team, a great dungeon master, an avid roleplayer, and a good friend to talk to.
I have no words to describe how it feels to know that the person that I enjoyed RPing with and coming up with story arcs will no longer be around to make new plans with me anymore, nor will we get to come together to have a casual conversation or a laugh outside of sim-related matters. It even feels weird and unsettling to know that I was the last person he commissioned, and that we had only just finished an RP scenario that would have set future events in motion the day before the accident. The emotions involved in trying to fill the large gap left behind by his passing, and having to imagine trying to move forward without his presence is indescribable. Simply put, iit feels wrong to have to move on without him.
But I'm aware that this is an eventual necessity. Eventually we (Or I, as far as this journal post is concerned) will need to move on. I very much doubt that he would have wanted the people who surrounded him in life to break down and cease to function in his passing. But I do not wish for a good person who has helped those around so much him to be forgotten over the course of time.

If only he was around to see such a thing. He would have loved it.
And for all those of you reading this up to this point so far, let me finish this journal with this; before you run out and do something reckless for fun, and i mean -anything- of the sort, please think things through carefully. Be responsible and considerate, not only for yourself but also for those who surround you. I would not wish anyone to experience a great loss of losing someone far too soon.
Rest in Peace,
galonodel
Yours sincerely,
Austin
