When I don't need it I fall over the thread for new idea, when looking for it it is impossible to find.
Please allow me to put this out there and you move it where ever it needs to be:
There are Christians and others who are lonely and alone. They need a friend to care and listen and be there for them.
How about a thread started like "a friend in need". Where people can go to visit that feel the same way but first. A request is made for people who are interested in being there to register as a friend. Two codes are important, an age group 20-40, 40-60,60-on. The other code would be gender, an option but an important one because gender specific may be important to an individual. After the registry is created with the names, the thread is created. I have seen many who express the feelings that they have no friends, that no one cares, that they need someone to reach out to.
The need is there. The thread can be for those to express their feelings but does not obligate them to reach out to those in the registry. At the same time those that do seek the registry would be anonymous to outsiders. Even those on the registry may even be those seeking friendship. No one would be barred from registering their name if they wanted to be a friend.
This topic came about because of Daniel Wrights post
Giving up on life, and not upset about it.
I had seen him post off and on and always enjoyed what he had to say. I did not see this particular post until a few days ago. He is not the first to post these kinds of feelings. I am sorry that I didn't see his post before he left. It seems he is no longer here. I can only hope he went on to bigger and better things. What could we have done for him had we known of this particular struggle? That is not uncommon. What can we do in the future for those who will post similar thoughts?
