Love and Support for Matthew (ninjapenguin/Wayne Kerr).
Okay, so I know he's going to hate me for this (as he'd be the first to admit he hates these kind of threads), but it seems that our favourite penguin is going through a really rough patch at the moment, and a public display of affection MIGHT just convince him that we all love him loads and miss him more, and want to help him.
I've put this in General to start with but it can be moved to Support if needs be.
Sweetheart, I don't know what to say to get through to you that I care ever so much. Like, I can't even put into words how frigging much I care about you because it's impossible to express in words. But if I could, I'd hug you so god-damn tight and never ever ever let go. Not even if I needed a wee!
You are one in a million. You're so kind, sweet, caring, funny & smart, and are one of THE most lovely people I have ever met.
You've lifted me up when I've been down, and helped me find the strength within myself to start helping myself. You've been a friend to me when I've had no-one. You've saved my life, more times than you'll ever know.
Please now try to find the strength within yourself to fight this. We are all here to help you. Please don't shut us away. You know I will drop everything & come up if you need me. I'd come today if you just said the word.
I would be totally devastated if you did anything bad. I can't imagine a life without you in it. You're going to be my maid of honour at my wedding, remember? In a nice frilly dress.
I love you. We love you. And we're all here for you.
You're one of the main reasons I'm posting in here now. We corresponded briefly before on v2, and I was touched by your concern Matthew. If you're going over the motorway rumble strips of life at the moment, then just reach out to us, and we'll help you turn the steering wheel.
Hmm, see I feel I can't say much, since I don't actually know you. But I see the penguin around a lot and it always makes me smile.So I hope you are ok and things get better soon x
Matthew,
I've missed you and wondered where you are and how you are doing.
My husband is my best friend.
In forgiving others, we are not exonerating them. They may not deserve exoneration. Rather, in forgiving others we are giving up our anger over the fact that what happened is not what "should" have happened or that our life is not the way it "should" have been.
i love you as much as jelly tots and i dont even know what they are!!!
but they must be really really sweet!!!
in all seriousness hunni....we are all here to support you. please let us do this as you have for us so MANY times.
love you bunches.

A little Consideration, a little Thought for Others, makes all the difference.
matthew,
i don't know you as well as the others but you have given me some of the most uplifting replies to my posts. for that, i love you. i'd noticed you havent been around and i hope you can get through whatever's going on.
- chloe.
Even as the stone of the fruit must break
that its heart may stand in the sun,
so must you know pain.
There are only two ways in which one can live their life. One is as though nothing is a miracle, the other is as though everything is.
i dont know you as well as what most of the people here do but i still love you and miss you lots and LOTS! you've been fantastic to me, you've given me a lot of love and hugs and laughs and i cant thank you enough for all of that. but above all you've been a dad to me.
i love you heaps and i know you're going to get through this.
i'm thinking of you.
You are the ninja and the penguin, in my mind that somehow translates into you being a ninja that wears a tuxedo. It's a silly image, I know. I was at a store today and they had a shirt with a penguin on it and a giant heart. It made me think of you.
I posted a couple times asking for support. And you wrote awesome replies. In fact, you are pretty awesome. I'm sorry that I was always bad at supporting you, but I hope you're okay.
If you need help, I can always listen. I know it sounds stupid.
