recent commentsFor the first time in my life, I found myself spending a considerable amount of time, living my life, with people I had never physically met... and in some ways they knew me better than anyone else did.Tigger Anyone that gets on the internet, whether they are just emailing an old friend, setting up a profile on Myspace or just searching for information, creates a new identity for themselves.

We need a voice, we need to be heard, responded to, and understood. We need to explore who we are, who we aren't, and everything in between. We need our space and intellect respected, our hearts honored. It doesn't matter if you're three or a hundred and three years old.Nancy M. |
