Small Whitelist Train, games listed, apply to join Ends Nov 18

I am extremely sorry about your loss. Losing a loved one is never easy, and I can only imagine how much harder it is with it occurring on Christmas. My condolences.
I find music really helps when I am down, as does listening to OTR. Listening to shows like Escape or Suspense or The Unexpected might help with your writers block.

Oh wow. So sorry to read about your brother. I just had a sibling that was in a bad car crash, but managed get out of it with minor injuries, but the thought of possibly losing a family member hit me hard. I don't know what I could say to make you feel better, but remember the good and know that time can heal wounds. Just try to enjoy your life as much as possible.

Can i join your WL?, I am truly sorry for your loss :c
Hugs (ɔ◔‿◔)ɔ ♥

I wonder if I can still join?

I would like to join your White list :D

I'd also like to join your WL. I've been trying to get a couple of those for a while now. stares at Suguri 2, stares hard at Shadowrun Returns, stares even harder at Forget Battalion Incidentally, welcome to mine. ;)

I know what it's like to be out of a job and in a tight spot financially too well, but things are going to work out eventually; so long as you keep trying, they always do.

As for your personal loss, I'm not the best at saying something about it, but hang on tight. With this, too, things eventually get better. The pain goes away and only the fond memories stay.

I have been through something similar in the last year. I feel that there's nothing to just overcome the sadness which seems to strike at any random point it chooses. I would recommend spending time outdoors with friends and/or family, it helps me immensely most times. Not much knowledge/interest in blogging, so no comments on that part. :)

I would like to apply. I'm very sorry about your brother, losing a loved one is a horrible thing. All my best wishes for you and your family.

I'm an art person and whenever I get mentally blocked I got Youtube to find random new music to listen to or look at my favourite artists's art; beautiful fanarts for my for my favourite canon works too. What do you blog about? Maybe find a new piece of work for your favourite hobbie (a video about the games you like, or additional worldbuilding lore for example). I can't guarantee it will work but I think it's worth giving it a try.

I'm not applying for your whitelist, but I'm not one to overlook someone in need.

Writing can be kind of an odd thing, depending upon your desired outcome. I've written a lot of different things, and while I love the more stylized types (say, virtual travel brochures for beautiful places I've visited in video games), sometimes, I just prefer something more genuine and off-the-cuff; something written just how I'd say it. Well, maybe not JUST how I'd say it, depending upon whether or not it's a family-friendly site, but you know what I mean. If it's a blog just about your own personal thoughts and observation, I'd recommend the latter, because that's not flowery, it's not pressured, and it's not a performance; it's just you, and there's something special about that, too. If I'm reading something that's supposed to be personal, that's what I like to see, and something unique; I read so much that just sounds like a giant echo from the streets, rather than someone's genuine thoughts and interpretations. I think that's a common attraction, too; as niche as my writing is, it has its fans that have come from some of the most unusual places.

As for your brother, I'd like to offer my deepest sympathies. I grew up surrounded by death, and had just assumed that it wasn't something that affected me. Between many family members and even classmates leaving this mortal coil, as well as many of my old clients (for a time, I made my living delivering medicine to the elderly) leaving me unfazed as they did, it just seemed like a natural part of existence to me. And then, on June 27th, 2013, my life turned itself right on its head, when a very close friend took his own life. It had never hit me like this before; more than 5 years later, and I'm still not right. Right around the death of someone who means a lot to you, you're still overcoming the initial shock and grief, and you're absolutely swimming in sympathies and condolences, but until it's you, very few people consider the long-term effects of loss. It's never easy; it just gradually gets a little better. If you ever need to talk, please don't hesitate to hit me up in the chat; I'm usually on Friday Nights 11pm-2am EST, and I'm on Discord, too; it's probably easier to catch me there, since I'm not terribly active on Steam.

Please don't be offended if I no longer accept entries, if they all have 5+ I may shut down because monitoring is going to bring me stress.

I would like to join your WL. ;)

applying for WL, don't really have any tips to give or encouragement, but i hope things will be better and you'll have a good day!

bump!

I added you to my 💙 to make you better day I hope. Whatever if you add me to yours or not. :) Be strong buddy, better days are coming dont worry.

I would love to join your WL
And I wish you good luck

Hi there. I'd like to apply to your WL. As to what you've been through, it's hard to imagine. I never went through a loss like that, so me telling you about it is probably as useful as asking me about wrangling groundhogs. Personally, I was depressed, but it's hard to say what caused me to get better. The environment changed, I got older, I played video games and I found friends that I could rely on. A lot of small, but beneficial changes overall.

I'm sorry I can't help you. It's a tough topic to talk about, even more tough to be knowledgeable on.

EDIT: Saw that you probably won't be reading this. Fair enough. No point in excessively straining yourself. Hopefully things get better and good luck to everyone else on the giveaways :)

I would like to join your whitelist.
Sorry for your loss.

Is there any tickets left? 🔖🚂😁

Hello randanicole,
I know your feelings all to well, whenever you lose something which you really loves, it's like a stab in the heart. Sadly it's a principle of life, we will inevitably lose important people, and it's up to ourselves finding ways to deal with it. That's the burden of life we all have to face. :/

It's absolutely okay to be sad, especially when you are overwhelmed by your feelings and memories. You just have to let it flow because it's a natural mechanism to handle your trauma of loss. You will feel better after a good cry.
It's also helpful to have trusted people around you, with whom you can share your feelings and thoughts.
So you just have to give your sadness room instead of supressing it. But you also must prevent sadness taking over your life, and here comes the real challenge.
Besides the sadness there is at least just as much positive things in life, you will appreciate. You just have to find them.
You should also try to focus on good and positive memories of your brother, I'm sure there are many things that make you happy when you remember them.

Be strong and resist the sadness taking over your life, your beloved brother would feel very bad if he knows you're sad because of him.

Concerning your mental blocks in writing, I can give you the tip to focus on something which is currently on your mind and which is craving for an essayish outlet. Just don't force you to write something just for the sake of writing. The feeling must be right. Sometimes you get inspirations from surfing the web or reading other blogs.

I wish you all the best and much love. In my opinion love is the purpose of life and it makes up for all the sad things.
Have a blue heart 💙. :)

When I'm feeling down, I love to look at images of cats or landscapes or I take the time for a walk.
Cats always make me smile. :)

View attached image.

I would like to join your.
I also added you into my WL.
Cheers :D

Saw some comments about bloggin, I always do voice notes when I realize about something I gotta write and I know I will forget(so I can keep doing my stuff and check those voice notes always. I started doing that because when ideas came to me I ended forgetting those because I was like "yea, when I'm back home I will write it on paper".

May I join to your WL? ^_^

May i join the VL?
Sorry for your loss. 😯

EDIT: I just saw about your brother. My feelings. It is not easy for any of us to see who we love to leave. It is part of our life. Believe me, I know he is in a better place (oh so much better). Be happy for him and honour his life with yours. Live the best you can, with love and gratitude. Someday you will be together...it will not take long...life is fast.
