Sev, thanks for this post. You nailed some of the things I feel, even from inside the org. There are seriously days when it's just hard to give a fuck at all, and we have some overlapping dear friends, so I know exactly what you mean when you talk about finding it hard to watch them get run down and run over and wondering how the hell they keep coming back (I've told Renay to run, far and fast, in fact, but I'd die here without her).

I wish I'd met you when I still had energy to be interesting and engaging because Ira and Renay both make you sound amazing.
