Well let's see some of your writings :) You are well come here, Andrew.

How long? Some things never go away. The world is so full of opportunity to get one off track that one has to know oneself and then be true to oneself. I just wished I could have known myself better at a younger age. That is why it is so important to be ready to be a good parent because parents are guides for their children...or their suppose to be but like most, that did not happen for me so much and I learned through the school of hard knocks. Thanks to the influx of information and availability to  a vast array of information, we now have information available...like what is available through this web sight...to educate us and help us move toward the direction of that that feels better.  Stay true to yourself, Andrea!

Uh. Be shy no longer. Very nice. Seems you are ready to fly with or without wires :)
