Just an observation that some will understand while others will not, so take it for what it is worth to you.
Imagine that there are 2 tunnels that lead to that light at the end of the tunnel, that each of us are anxiously awaiting. (Some of you will need not imagine, since you will understand what I am referring to).
Tunnel #1: The train that travels through this tunnel has no Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA), but it does promise to arrive at the destination that we anxiously await.
There are alot of people on this train, many of which are unaware that tunnel #2 even exists.
Some people on this train spend their time asking questions such as, are we there yet?, When are we gonna get there?, what's it gonna be like once we do arrive?, etc......
Others enjoy sharing jokes and games along the way, and some busy themselves with other activities/opportunities until they arrive.
Tunnel #2: The train that travels through this tunnel has an ETA.
There is a small number of select individuals on this train.
The passengers have been informed that they will arrive at their destination on Saturday.
The passengers are excited. There are not alot of questions being asked since they are all so well informed and seem to have all of the answers at hand.
Some will not be busying themselves with other activities/opportunities, since they are assured that they will be arriving at their destination on Saturday.
Saturday arrives and to the disappointment of many they have not arrived?
Well evidently there was a mix up in communication somewhere. Monday is now the new ETA. As Monday approaches the excitement begins to mount!
Monday arrives and who would have guessed that there was going to be another case of miscommunication! Imagine that! So now the ETA is set for Thursday. Well Thursday came and went......Hmmmmmmmm.
I was on board the train that leads through tunnel #2 for a short while, but I decided to switch trains.
I may not have all of the answers now, or a "supposed" ETA, but I am still on course for the light at the end of the tunnel, and I enjoy not having the roller coaster ride that tunnel #2 offered.
The funny thing is that both trains will arrive at the same destination at exactly the same time regardless!
I guess it comes down to just being a matter of preference!
As I said earlier, take it for what it is worth to you.

I agree completely . Train #2 is being operated by a few who like the passengers to "think" they know what is going on. A feeling of importance I guess. I too was on that train and I finally got off at one of the stops. Tired of riding that train.........I think it eventually broke down somewhere along the way.
Now having said that.......I am not completely satisfied with the ride on train #1 either. I feel those in charge of this train are not giving "enough" information. I may be wrong...I have been before.....once ...LOL........but I feel we could be given more information, but that isnt my call to make. All I can do at this point is have faith that he has a reason for doing this. One that in the end will make sense to us all. This faith that I speak of is getting harder to muster up each morning though........but I am hanging in the best I can. I guess thats what faith is......believing in the unknown.
The problem with this train is I am not 100% sure what direction we are even heading anymore. I hope it doesnt break down some where out there in nowheresville like train #1 did. I will keep mustering up the faith as long as I can......but I am running out of energy.

I watched this forum for months, trying to sort the good guys from the bad guys... before I ever posted. It seems the good guys stay here...yay! but the bad guys...well they do what bad guys do best... deceive. They crawl in ...do their best to inflict some damage... eventually get banned (thank you admin)... and then come back under another name... and bring friends. I use the word friends loosely (the enemy of my enemy is my friend) it seems that they are quick to turn on one another also.
the reason I'm typing all of this stuff that you already are well aware of, is this...
imagine being Bryan, he has the weight of everyones hope on his shoulders... that in itself is enough of a burden (but he hasn't shirked that responsibility). now add to that, the frustration that everytime he posts... he can't be sure of the loyalty of everyone reading his posts. We see it everyday.. the trolls that are here to attack us...they spend their time (and I find this incredible, but have truely come to believe this) looking for ways to bring him/us down.... they wait for word from Bryan... the more important the information is that he gives us... the more dangerous it is as a weapon in their hands.... imho... he can't tell us as much as he'd like to... because he has learned that lesson, and he is protecting us from the damage that could be done.
The information we'd like to have is there now, and it will be there when the dust settles. Lets work with Bryan and let the dust settle, so that none of us get hurt because our vision isn't what it should be... what we'd like it to be.
Bryan has faith in us (despite the troll infection we carry) or he wouldn't still be here...
we need to have faith in him, and try and understand that we can't know everything.... not right now.
thank you for your patience with my lengthy post
it just makes sense to me that we be peacefully patient.

Oh I agree...............but like I said.............it does get VERY hard sometimes to keep having faith. I am sure it is equally as hard on Bryan as it is us. But the fact remains it is still a VERY trying time.......BUT I am sure we will pull through.
I guess this is a classic example of: "What doesnt kill us will only make us stronger"

I think that Style is my new "voice of reason"....I find that I am no longer able to be misled by "insider" information...It was awfully exciting to believe those that thought they knew that good news was immiment, but when Bryan doesn't seem to even know what "they" are talking about, well, ....Style, you are my man of the hour.

The reallity of it is that the amount of light if any is going to depend on the outcome of the investigation. What do you think is going to happen if BoN
discovers that there arent funds to cover the Picpay accounts, i suspect that certain people are going to be fitted for orange jumpsuits.
