Dear all,

this forum has helped me a lot. It took me some time to get out of the depressions, the suicidal ideas, weakness, misuse of medication and alcohol - it was really a lot of work. I am more and more ok now and have the feeling, that I cannot contribute any longer - at least not helpful things you do not already know. I tend to repeat now what helped me - I think everybody knows its sport, music, travel, creativity and being human. I am turning the chapter now as it becomes a little like a drug to be online with you and to give comments.... All is more or less settled. Next week I leave Ziguinchor, will go back to Spain - and then it will take approx. 6 weeks of stress for my wife to arrive. I just have to pay. The biggest help was - to be very honest - believe. I read a lot in the Bible - and that was something that helped me change - apart from other things. So, sorry for the typos and the sometimes imperfect English - but it has become difficult, to always live with 4 languages as I have no other choice. Another thing is, that I spent enough time being sick - and this cannot continue. Because you forget to live. Years pass by, without you realizing it. Suddenly you are retired - and ask yourself: how much time is left? So I decided to life now.

All those, who helped me a lot - thank you very, very much. All those I could help: Great. Those who liked my music - it will always be on: https://www.youtube.com/@ES24chantal and will grow, if I make a new ones, which are worth it.
The future is now easy: 8 months a year in Spain, 3 months in Ziguinchor (Senegal) and 1 month vacation for paragliding somewhere far away (but on the seaside - for my wife). We will move - to a bigger town (but still small enough to walk from one end to the other) in October. I told here once, that I started with 35 years (birthday) to count backwards. I am now at 7 - and will really try to get the best out of it.

Thank you for all the help, encouragement, Zuspruch... as you wish.

And do not forget 2025 song:

If you feel the need to be away from SF for your own reasons, I think that's ok, but please don't feel like your contribution isn't valuable. Certainly, one can end up repeating things a lot, but that doesn't mean that it's not valuable. Often times it's just having someone that listens, cares and is trying to help that's the most valuable thing rather than any sort of originality to a reply.

You're always welcome back here if you want to be here, so please don't forget that.

Wishing you good things.
