I feel for you, I have experience of one and you’ve lost six to suicide, but clearly they are not forgotten and still in your thoughts. Take care and take it easy on yourself.

As Griffoner said and be aware that here there are people who care and I’m sure there are many others outside of the Bay. Hard though it maybe for you, you do recognise your need to live, take care.

This is perfect in every way, including the title. There is something about lighthouses, when I grew up there were several. You have captured it so well.

This piece speaks to me of self harming, as a former nurse I’ve seen this and the reasons behind the action are complex. The title is perfect and maybe for different reasons than my thoughts.
