It is great that you honor MaggieD like this.

We could definitely use more of her kind on this forum.

The most agreeable person to have a disagreement with.

Agreed... Maggie was awesome and I miss her.
 
I think of these lyrics on this day:

As far as my eyes can see
There are shadows approaching me
And to those I left behind
I wanted you to know
You've always shared my deepest thoughts
You follow where I go
 
Debating Maggie always reminded me of what it used to be like when discussing politics with friends: some back and forth banter followed by a little give and take.

The world misses the Maggie D’s more than we’ll ever know.
 
She must have been something! I wish all her friends here continued good memories. May she rest in peace.
 
One of the first to welcome me here and definitely one of the best. Happy MaggieD Day!
 
I enjoyed her humor, and good cheer.

One of the first people i ever interacted with here at DP

One of the classiest people i ever had the pleasure of conversing with

We didnt see eye to eye on everything but we did on the important items....

I miss her wisdom and the rapier wit

Part of one of Maggie's blog entries:

I'm going to continue blogging my journey. Being the curious little ****er I’ve always been, this final journey is intriguing. And I think it is unfortunate we don’t know more about what’s what at this stage in our lives. How we need to take control... ask for what we want... refuse to take no as an answer. Perhaps some whose lives I’ve touched, virtually and in person, will learn some kernel of helpful info that will help them or a loved one in the future.

There will come a time when I’m off the computer. On Sue’s to-do list is a final post on DP to let you all know when I’ve shed my earthly bonds. That’s been on my list for months and months. I couldn’t bare not saying goodbye to all of you.

Be happy for me from now on. Knowledge is power. Before this is over? I’ll be very powerful indeed. https://debatepolitics.com/threads/happy-maggied-day.408463/page-3#post-1074255768

From another, "If I could wave a magic wand......I would give all people the gift of realizing when it's raining outside. And to ask for what you need."

...If something is convenient, I buy it to make my life easier. I've streamlined my chores to conserve energy, always thinking of an easier way... even if it means donating something that doesn't work as well.

I'm quick to ask for accommodation when I need it wherever I go. People, complete strangers, are wonderful.

Why am I telling you this? Believe me, it's not to brag. Not at all. It's because I know many of our members are older and may, hopefully not, find themselves in a tough situation as I have.

Don't be like others I've known who seem to think they can take it with them. I've known more than a few. You can't. Spend it on yourself or a loved one. Get rid of the mindset that says, "That's wasteful," and make your life easier and fill it with as much joy as you can.

And, in the meantime, be the person you hope to run into when/if you ever get into a bad situation...

Sermon over. :lol: https://debatepolitics.com/threads/if-i-could-wave-a-magic-wand.420899/
