present

I am here and I am reading.

Thank you for your support.

When something bad happens, I offer my condolences.

There's never the "right" thing to say, so I just say something - and then think about how trite and meaningless the words "I'm sorry" invariably sound. They could never make a difference, I've long thought.

Now those words are being offered to me, and I know they really do help a damn lot.

Your presence here is invaluable, and that you've taken the time to be here is truly unforgettable.

You will always be the people who cared enough to help me through the very worst time of my life.
