I think most of us go through cycles in our lives where we have things that keep us away from Pixies or moods that we suffer that make us just not want to interact. Personally, I've had a few work related projects that kept me busy during the days. And I've had times where I was stressed out over work and home stuff, and it's fouled my mood to where I just didn't feel like posting much. Perhaps I didn't want to sour the board...or maybe I just needed to fester a bit. Don't know. But that's what happens with me.

Doesn't sound like a very interesting finding, huh? ha ha

When I see someone leave or come back, I just think that the real world interupted their time here. I know that personality conflicts can occur, but true friends recognize them and work around them. And Pixies are friends, right?

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
