I just miss the crew...I mean...I watch the episodes and stuff...just wish there was more...

PMS be damned...I'm going for a walk and try not to get soppy-gobfaced over Firefly and the crew...

Sigh...

We feel your pain. It's not fair, is it? To have such a pretty fantasy put in front of us, and then yanked away before it even had a chance to reach maturity.

We'll never feel the same way about anyone as we did the characters on that show, will we? They were something special, and if you took everything else away from the show, you'd still love those characters.

I haven't felt that way in a long time. I keep myself from watching the show, and especially the movie, because I don't want to feel that way. Even though, there's something wistfully beautiful in that desperate state of mine. But it brings tears, and I don't like that.

I admire people here, who can take feeling that way so often about so many things. People who can re-watch the series and BDM over and over, and always find a reason to go back and experience like it was the first time.

Do you remember your first time? Maybe it'll help to think of how it felt back then. That's a special feeling for me. I was so desperate when that happened... I fell in love with so much while in the basement of my mother's house, recovering from surgery, and there was this crew who helped me through it. I sent them letters, I cried out of futility. It feels so good and so and at the same time to care about something that much.

Maybe we'll never be the same because of this. I know that life will never be able to satisfy my expectations from this point on. Nothing in reality will ever measure up to the world Joss Whedon painted for us. Not for me, anyways.

I wish I could give you advice on how to deal with it, but most people around here wouldn't recommend that anyone cope the way that I do.

Good luck.

Let my spirit rise, Valkiries carry me.
Take me to Valhalla where my brothers wait for me.
Fires burn into the sky, my spirit will never die.

That was so beautiful...

I try not to watch certain episodes for a reeeaaaally long time...so that when I do watch it again...its new...

But yes...it is a futile type of love...

I discovered Firefly while staying with MY mother...visiting my old hometown...revisiting my mother's mental illness and addiction...i was miserable...alone...angry. Then...there was the Captain...there was Kaylee....there was beautiful Inara...and for a little while I wasn't trapped...I was free.

I had a similar type of feeling when I read "Tales of the City" by Armistead Maupin. The whole series...was wonderful. I had just lost my brother and with every book I got to spend time with a group of funny and interesting people...not the drudgery of mourning.

Thank you for the beautiful entry...

You're making me cry.

Take the freedom it gave you. You can carry it where ever you go. Just remember the emotion you felt, and it will sustain you through hard times.

Burn the land and boil the sea...
