I think we owe it to Chester Bennington and the rest of Linkin Park to keep loving their music while still living our own lives. That's probably what he would have wanted, anyway.

Thanks. I wish you nothing but the best, too. Just hang in there however you can.😢
I still can't quite wrap my head around the fact that this actually happened. I’ve been in a bit of a shock for days now. Honestly, Linkin Park was the one thing that really pulled me through during those years when I felt totally alone, completely lost, or like there just wasn't any way out. Their music always seemed to be there for me. Losing Chester feels like losing someone I've known for a lifetime, and I just feel like things will never be the same again. Music is really the only thing I can always lean on; it’s like it "gets" me, no matter what. On the other hand, I guess it's somewhat comforting to see how many people their music helped—some people even say it literally saved their lives when they were at their absolute lowest. I just hope he's in a better place now and isn't hurting anymore. I don't really know what else to say. I think I've cried more in the last few days than I have in the last ten years combined...
I guess I’ll give this a shot, though I’m not holding my breath. I’m looking for a female friend to chat with—I just find it easier to connect and actually have things to talk about in women's company. I’m a 30-year-old guy living in Des Moines, so if there’s anyone nearby who’d be up for messaging and maybe grabbing coffee sometime down the road, let me know. Something happened recently that really knocked me for a loop, and I could use a distraction to help take my mind off whatever is making me miserable. Just a heads-up: please don't reach out if you're the type to disappear after three messages. If you aren't actually interested in talking, maybe just skip this. That's all from me 🙂
