R&P: So Long For Now.. Can you share a song about new beginnings or starting over?

Godspeed, Punch.

"A lot of people think this is just a job that you go to... take a lunch hour, the job's over, something like that. But it's a 24-hour deal... no two ways about it... and what most people don't see is just how hard it is to do the right thing. People think if I make a judgment call, that it's a judgment on them. But that's not what I do, and that's not what should be done. I have to take everything and play it as it lays. Sometimes people need a little help. Sometimes people need to be forgiven. And sometimes they need to go to jail. And that's a very tricky thing on my part... making that call. The law is the law, and heck if I'm gonna break it. But if you can forgive someone... well, that's the tough part. What can we forgive? Tough part of the job. Tough part of walking down the street."

Love must be forgotten, life can always start up anew

I for one will miss your answer and questions, you are a person, contact that has always been true to their self and to others like myself. There are many who will miss you. I'm sorry if I never contacted you by e-mail. The reason for that would be that I'm so much older than most of my contacts I try an not be a hassle to them or others. I'lve always been happy to answer their questions and help with a good answer when I can. So thanks for being one of the true blue of R&P, I will miss your so very much. I do hope you make it back. Take care and may the sun always shine in your face and the wind be to your back. And you took the song right out of my mouth that I was going to post. So i hope I can come up with something as good.

Just wanted to say one more thing... Punch, the simple fact that you're willing to look inward, figure out where things went wrong, and then take steps to *not* make the same mistakes twice, gives me GREAT HOPE that all will be well in the end. Sending some powerful good mojo your way!!!

I've sent this too you on a couple of occasions but, it's awesome. I think the others here may enjoy it as well.

Well, I'm sorry to hear about your woes my dear friend but, as always I lend a shoulder to rest your troubled head and an ear to listen to you. I've left you with some Inspirational songs of hope. I hope they help. (((( Huggs & Kisses)))) : ) Jilly

Right back at you! None come to mind atm, sorry :/. BQ: I'm Christian, but I'm not very religious. I do celebrate Easter though. BQ2: Haha, part of me still wants to sometimes, even though I don't. I hope the Easter Bunny brought you a bunch of candy.

Punch, you're the only person on R&P who could make such a graceful exit (temporary as it is) and still make me smile when reading the question. You're one of the best on here! Don't ever leave for good!

its true i don't come on answers very often but I remember when you I first started seeing your questions and answers because I've been here a lot longer. You have consistently been one of the most inventive ones. I'm surprised that no one mentioned your terrific cafe questions which brought people together to share music, a shame that our fun had to be spoiled and that my computer never could acces your chat room. anyways know you have had a rough time of it and know we will be here when/if you return

You do know that you are one of the coolest people around here ,right ? In many peoples' views

here's one song that fits just perfectly.. Start Again , the second song

Yeah I always mention Leonard whenever I get the appropriate chance :)

take care Punchy *hugs*

Not to much to say...this happened to me for awhile. Get back on soon as some people leave and never come back. I was missed and got tons of email while I was gone...just like you I checked from time to time at work..but it wasnt the same. Just take care and get out and find love/hobby/ or even volunteer as I did with the extra time. Later. And see ya soon!

I dont think it's on youtube but...

its on the Black Eyed Peas Album "The E.N.D"

Party All The time.... It truly is a great song that makes me smile when i listen to it...
