I Am Blessed to Have Such Wonderful Cyber Friends

So many times they have been there to validate me. Validation for everything. Coming out is full of land mines and surprises and there is no manual or road map. Everytime I have felt frightened, I have been encouraged to breathe, to write and did I mention breathe?

You will find my first essay published here.

I have many people to thank, too many to name for fear of leaving out someone who inspired me, or held my hand, or spoke to me late at night on the phone when I couldn't fall asleep. So THANK YOU ALL.

(geez, i'm acting like Sally Field fer the love of pete, its just one essay)
