You guys do great Mary....but you are right, it is hard to understand if you've never been there.....just the sleeping thing alone, I ca't tell you how many people have told us to just put her in her own room and she'll cry it out to get to sleep if she wakes up alone....I can't explain to them (no matter how hard I try) the damage that would do to her emotionally and the damage she would do to herself physically if we tried that...

Absolutely. MJ's nervous system must be WAY too fragile to even think about stress like that. And the emotional harm...

That's exactly how I feel.
I couldn't word it any better.
There are so many factors . . . I just am too scared.

I can't answer for Connor, Dana, but for me I can tell you that who I am on here is somewhat different from who I am in the real world.
I don't mean morally or anything like that.
I mean here I'm comfortable.
Sometimes I'm not in real life. Talking to people isn't always easy for me.
Sometimes it's just hard to meet new people.
So hard to explain. I'm not getting this just right.

That's almost it.
Something more still that I can't quite put into words.
But you're pretty close.
Thanks Dana! :kiss:

Danny, what's wrong?

(I'm right here, sorry about that.)

(Mary: No, it wasn't the food. :lol: )

It's just that I've been thinking... I don't fear the conclusion of life, I fear the brevity of it.

Someone from our school died last week, as a result of a fire in their garage. He saved a girl from the inferno, but unfortunately couldn't save himself. Now, I didn't know him, but this has been the second death within our school in less than 1/2 a year.

One of the saddest things hapened when our school gathered on the front lawn to pay our respects to the procession passing by this morning. There were only three cars. Three. Three cars for a teenager who gave his life to save another. :(

The thing I fear the most about death, is the brevity of life. Given willingly, and taken away in an instant. Sometimes I wonder why I sit in the classroom, day after day, copying some seemingly menial work down, when I could be breaking free from society, standing out, and making something of myself before it's too late. Alas, the shackles of fate are too tightly bound to the legs of society, and so I must commit myself to menial tasks to get anywhere else. :(

That, combined with the weather, my horde of final projects, and a few other deaths in the community (including a police officer slain in the line of duty), it's just been a really depressing few days for me.

Heavy Danny.
We had a funeral for a slain Police Officer in Philadelphia today.
This sort of thing does make you stop and think about things you wouldn't normally.
We have to keep getting on with it Danny!
None of us know what's in store for us, but if we think too much about all that could go wrong, we'd all go nuts.
It's just when really bad things happen, like these sudden deaths, that we really stop and question.
And then we just go on.

Hmmm... I just listened to "We Go On" when you posted that. :lol:

Thanks for the kind words.

I think I am the same here as in real life too.....Though Luke, Krystyna, Joanna, Mike, Jake and others can verify that for me...

People like you are lucky in that respect, Bonny.
It's easy for you.
But people like me. . .it's just different.
I'm not painfully shy, but still. . .

Regarding the personality thing: I think I'm pretty much the same on here as I am in real life. (Be afraid. :lookaroun) I've never considered myself to be "sociable", but I'm quite good at public speaking, and really have no trouble talking to other people. Heck, I almost always chat with the person standing next to me in line at almost any Disney attraction! :lol:
