******************************Where we come from***************************
***********************************************************************
Just a few things this morning...
I've learned so much about me in these last four years. Up until just a few weeks over those four years ago, what I was certain I knew about computers was what I had read. {IE: zeros & ones...positive & negative}
Like most anything, there's what we read and think we know, and what we experience and really know.
Virtual worlds have opposing factors... because of anonymity people can be very false, and because of that same anonymity people can be freed to express what we are really like.
In my case in this last year or so I've come to understand something about myself that created so much of who I was and why I did so much of my destructive behaviour for so many years. I won't get into details, {twelve step programs suggest not doing a "fifth step from the podium". } =^..^=
I saw an avatar profile last evening that, unfortunately, I understand... I understand a lot.
"Im rude, crude, and witty! I dont usually speak unless spoken to but have a lot to say. I cuss.. A LOT! I shoot people for a living and bleed music. I dont like talking about myself because it would only make you jealous! HA! If you cant take a joke, f*** ya!"
{I added the asterisks}
Virtual worlds allow any of us to be anything we choose, I hope I've chosen wisely.
And so it goes
My love to you all, brinda
Namaste
P.S Jake... were you chatting with your people in Hyderabad? Funny we were just chatting about your potential trip there.

My apologies to the residents of the state of Andhra Pradesh for the misspelling of your states name on the photo or the city of Hyderabad.
