I have been the "good" wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend, and volunteer you speak of in your writings....I can so relate to everything you have submitted...I love being ALL that, but also I have felt trapped....For me, it took many moons to "get through it" and I seeked a good Christian Counselor...<BR>
May Hope and Peace Be With YOU..<BR>

To All,<BR>
<BR>
All should know that i am obsessed with birthdays....i make a fuss over my family's and friends' birthdays....I celebrate my birthday for at least a week or for as long as my family and friends will allow it....I believe that we should celebrate our lives "now" and that every day/year is a bonus...something worth celebrating.<BR>
<BR>
Happy Birthday to all those in September...<BR>
Ya think there are so many "more" people born in September, because so many people are snuggling in December and January????<BR>
Happy Freaky Friday!  Every Friday is Freaky where I am, but today is freakier...being Friday the 13th!<BR>

BLENDERITES~~ please forgive me if I don't comment on what I am still coming to Blender and reading right now ... so many fine writers posting here I would just never intentionally ignore. My FIVE YEARS LATER may explain a bit on my tardiness in comments. I hope to catch up on reading and commenting a bit later. Bravo! to all on your work and sharing ..... Rennie

It's the shortest of the 4 updates, but I think it's about the best, from the "lady in green" in the first entry, to the link to the story "Sacrement" in the last. I was starting to mature a little bit, or at least write better.<BR>
<BR>
It's still odd to think I was 18 at the start of that. No offence to some of the younger authors here, but I don't think you really start to get a handle on your emotional life until your early 20s.  (Maybe I'm biased, and the date will always be "6-8 years before Kirk's current age".)<BR>
<BR>
Anyway, feedback is welcome.

yes me again, <BR>
i just read some of the new submissions:<BR>
<BR>
twinkle - <a href="/blend/wv.cgi?id=2002.09.13.23.08.21943">laziness in love</a> was amazing. (im not sure how to do the linkcode thing, so if it doenst work the title of the poem is laziness in love.) anyone who has not read it should do so. i adore your way with words. i especially like the phrase "lilac hours".<BR>
<BR>
bridget o - two bloodlines is splendidly dark. it has a great mood. vampires......yes.<BR>
<BR>
jon - i liked the inner struggle in "without you" beautifully illustrated. <BR>
farewell all
