Strange weather...

# 69 It was a sunny afternoon today, and then all of the sudden rain came down pretty hard… The sky did turn darker, but the sun was still out too… I don’t really know how to describe it - something like a gloomy day and sunny at the same time… Anyway, gloomy is how I’ve been feeling the past few days on here… I didn’t realize before how deeply I could be affected by sad news that I learned here. While I don’t deny that friendship grows from interactions on here, I have always tried to maintain certain anonymity realizing that these are not people that I interact face-to-face after all. But when I heard about Ayu, a myLotter who recently died in her sleep, I was completely in shock and my tears just started to come down. I was crying, and I’ve never even met her. Not in person anyway, but it was only a couple of days before I heard the news that I was interacting with her on here. And I remember her even from her early days as a newbie. Rest peacefully sweet girl… Thank you for the friendship. I will miss you dearly.

She's a Balinese, I guess that's why she caught my attention straight away when she was new... I have a special spot in my heart for anything related to Indonesia...

The sad news about Ayu affected me a lot as well. I hate to rethink about it.

@sishy7 I could not believe it was true, it is true that never a new day is granted, but she was so young.

Oh, my! I didn't know her, but I felt the same when poor MarcyAZ passed away. I still feel her loss and think of her often.

Yes, I too remember her. There are at least a handful other myLotters who have passed away that I think of from time to time.

I'm so sorry to hear this . I wasn't sure who she was, but then I saw your comment . . . ah, now I remember her. We have crossed paths here though I didn't get know her well. We may not meet in person the many friends we make online, but certain they can touch our hearts - friends are friends no matter what. May she rest in peace.

I am so sorry for your loss. I didn't meet her but it sounds like you were quite fond of her. It does hurt when we lose someone we are close to.

Yeah, the sudden heavy rain in the middle of a sunny day may not be all that strange as it may be happening in many other parts of the world as well...

There weren't really that many days between her last activity on here and the sad news post. That's why it was such a shock to me. It's like one minute I was talking to her then the next minute she's gone.

We first heard the sad news from her myLotter boyfriend a few days ago. Sounds like your weather was even gloomier than mine... I hope it has improved by now...

I too was like that and I even stopped mylotting. I only interacted with her here and I even remember her last post. She started simple questions so it is easy to participate. She was so young and nice and I felt I lost some one very close. Anyway some one helped me to change my mind set and told me it may be a fake news. So I decided to participate here for the better change.

I don't know what it is that's making Happ to think the news was a fake one. But if anyone is making up such devastating story, the person is very heartless for spreading a cruel hoax.
