Because we need it:
This is for us. We're the ones they look to when they need a strong one. When they need the one to lean on, to hear them out, to cry on, they call for us.
This is for us. We're the ones who can't take the time to mourn, because someone has to make the phone calls, find the right suit, make up the spare room bed, start the tea, and bake the cookies.
This is for us. We're the ones who listen, again, and again, and again, but when we need to talk, we find deaf ears.
This is for us. We keep track of the car keys, the lunches, and the appointments, run until we're ragged, then run some more. We spend our days helping others, until we can no longer help ourselves.
This is for us. The ice cream, the beer, the chips and salsa while watching black and white horror stories and rooting for the monsters.
This is for us.

This is for us, for being in a place where when everything listed above drives us batshit insane, and we feel that we have no one to turn to.
THIS is for us. We are for each other.
This us for you, to know you will never have to stand alone, because every damn person in this board has your back, and has a shoulder for you to lay your head on to either listen to you vent, or to wipe your tears and to let you know that you are alone, and understood.
This is for us.
