One of the choicest pleasures below the music-thread line
is watching Mrrzy and Senoufou exchange posts en français when the spirit moves them.

It is telling that when the message needed to be relayed on Mrrzy's behalf,
the Mudcat member entrusted with the task was someone who leads with the heart,
rather than somebody focusing on pronouns.

Omitted from the list of concerns -- I looked for this --
was when Mrrzy's place of employment shut down,
and efforts to move on to another post got nowhere.

Yes, it can be substantiated that
when in past threads
one fellow member used "her" for Mrrzy,
there was a prompt correction.
I agree with Jeri, though, it seems secondary at best.

Hope Mrrzy gets some rest and relief at the very least.
We're pulling for you.

Oh dear, well I hope Mrrzy forgives me for my mistake, but as people say, what's important here is the distress and anguish he is suffering at the moment, and one's hopes for some sort of resolution and improvement in his mind.
Mudcat can be so supportive and kind, and I'm sure this will help him to feel appreciated and cared about.

Displacement to a foreign land is a worthy worry. West Virginia, Desert Depression Nevada, Jailville, Patagonia? Some I can visit some I can not.
He's a dude, the 'y' confuses most.

What Doug said.
The thread is somewhere around here, I think, but gender identification doesn't seem like a huge deal right now.
I'm happy Mrrzy knew to ask for help, and seems to be getting it. Strength to you...

A few years ago, Mrrzy let it be known, here on Mudcat, that a transition to gender neutral was being made. A request, to anyone who knew the given first name, was not to use it or assign a gender, and that "they/it" would be preferred to "he" or "she".

I hope you are soon feeling better Mrrzzy.

I am sure someone recently told me that mrrzy was male but it doesn't matter. Male, female or non-binary I send them all my best healing wishes. If you read this, mrrzy, when you feel up to it, get over to us in Airedale. Everyone leaves our house feeling better :-)

here's a song I wrote for a young lass I knew. I was 11,000 miles away at the time. It did its part, along with the professional help she was getting. If I could have done the same for the next person I would have gladly traded the song, and a lot more.

I hope it helps.

Steve, I don't know. I hope he/she will understand my mistake if I've got it wrong.

Mrrzy, there are a lot of folks here that think very highly of you, myself included.

Thanks Senoufou for letting us know about Mrrzy.

Mrrzy, this is my heartfelt wish for you. I hope you find this place within you, as I did many years ago after a series of events put me in a bad place emotionally. When I worked through the issues and came out better and stronger for being able to deal with it all, this song helped me to celebrate my new found harmonious self. Every time I hear it I am reminded of how I survived and thrived after that time in my life.

All the best thoughts and prayers from Helen in Australia.


I Can See Clearly Now

I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day
It's gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day

Oh, yes I can make it now the pain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is that rainbow I've been praying for
It's gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day

Look all around, there's nothing but blue skies
Look straight ahead, there's nothing but blue skies

I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day
It's gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day

I received a very worrying message from Mrrzy two days ago, asking if I would be willing to create a thread to tell Mudcat about certain circumstances, if I heard nothing more by Monday. I agreed of course, so here are the details.
(Firstly, I'm assuming that Mrrzy is a woman, but I hope I'll be forgiven if that's not the case.)
She has been feeling suicidal for quite a while and things got extremely serious, so her friends have been watching over her constantly. Now she has booked herself into a special suicide-prevention unit for a couple of weeks, and will have very limited access to the Internet.
There are many problems on her mind, including empty-nest syndrome, her cat, displacement to a foreign land, the traumatic death of her father and so on. It has all come to a head and she is in a bad way.
She would welcome any support on here from us all, which I'm sure will be forthcoming from everyone.
I have full permission from Mrrzy to relate all these details.
Mrrzy, for my part, I wish you well and hope you can surmount all your troubles and sad memories. Meilleurs voeux pour une vite récupération!
