To begin things, I just would like to say that I'm back. How long I'll be back, I don't know. It really just depends on how things go. But I want the people who read this to understand a few things.

The state of this community, in my opinion, is at an all time low. Some of the people that I followed dearly have left, and some that I had very close relations to have disappeared. From my point of view, it's quite a sad community at this time. However, don't get me wrong. I do feel as though there is still some good and that there are others who aren't seeing it from where I am, which I totally get it; you aren't really me so you view it how you view it. But the people that are simply gone, I just don't know.

Where have I been? Well, I can't give too much of an excuse, I just haven't had the inspiration nor the energy I felt was needed to put into this. On top of that, last year was probably one of my least favorite times in my life, as I was not a person I would want to be and feel like. To sum it up, the only 'real' reason I was gone was that I didn't want to. That's where I've been.

Looking forward? T be honest, I don't know where this community will go or, more specifically, where I will go within this community. I met so many great people when I was an avid writer a couple years back that influenced and inspired me to write, I don't know what will happen. People like SharpHotdog15 and Devil_in_Church were some of the people I met within this community some years ago, and now, to my knowledge, they're just gone. Up and vanished. It saddens me, but all I can do about it is wish that they are doing well. I can only hope to find people like them to connect with in the future.

Will you write? Well, I said that I am back, so probably. I have a few ideas in my head, but none that I have actually thought out and wrote down, so give me some time. Yes, I will be writing.

As of now, that seems to be it. This was more an invitation for people to come and give second thoughts on the state of this community more than anything, or maybe it was to allow others to see this differently, I really don't know. I can only hope that the Amour community can come back, and the people I was fond of are okay and happy.

Feel free to leave second thoughts or anything in the comments below.
