Hello everyone! I'm going to be starting up a "Dear Ocean" post. This is where you can reach out to your fellow Riftfairers if you're in need of advice or help, and you can do it Anonymously. Other people can respond to your anon posts to try and help you figure out a tricky situation, or offer up advice on all sorts of things.

If this one goes well, I may do another in the future.

I'll even start us off.

Dear Ocean,

Last month I saw someone that had hurt me, but he didn't stick around. We sort of got to talk a little, but I still feel like we left a lot unresolved. I don't know if I should still be angry and hurt by what he did, or if I should try to accept that he just doesn't understand me, but he was the first person who tried in a very long time.

Dear Ocean,

I'm very torn on what I should be doing. Is it forgetting my mother's sacrifice and what she might have become to allow myself to be friendly with one of the very beings who took her away? Would she forgive me for making something like "friends" with them? Would any of them forgive me?

I miss my brother a great deal right now. Even if he is a dick.

Dear Ocean,

Thank you. I do appreciate the reply. I look forward to those new and happy memories ... and to a time when I can see this as a world of new possibilities too.

It's a bit difficult to forget the duties I have at home however. I will strive as best I can for forgive myself if I can't return to them right away.
