Due to a family emergency, I took a little over 6 months off, did 2 jumps, then took 2 more months off and am now back to skydiving. Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that made you smile.

I just read through this whole thread. I do not understand why you chose to take it as a personal attack (whether you took it as geared towards you or the DZ). The whole gist of the thread I got from her was concern for her fellow jumpers - more experienced and less experienced - and a general desire to understand why someone would take the chance with high winds. Hopefully, you were having a bad day when you posted this. Otherwise, I hope I never end up jumping with you or asking you questions. With this kind of response, you would be someone I would be terrified to ask any questions of. I'm a "newbie" - 50 jumps. I will ask stupid questions or may make posts out of wanting to understand and true concern for my fellow jumpers (and myself). If and when I make the posts and ask those questions...I hope that you do not choose to respond to my questions if your response would be similar to the one posted here. Life is short!

**Great Big Hug** for you and all that witnessed it. I hope that you all take comfort in the fact that you did what you could.

I wouldn't go back and do anything over. Yes, there has been heartache over the years, but also a lot of joy, happiness and love. Every thing I've gone through has helped mold me into the person that I am. I like who I am. If I could change something in the past, it very well could change who I am. Nah...wouldn't change any of it. Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that made you smile.

Anyone who uses a child as a pawn in a relationship should have the child taken away from them. The kid(s) do not need that! They need love and support and to be assured that they are not to blame for the divorce/separation/whatever. They do not need to be mentally dragged down 'cause the parent is a **bleep**.
