There was a boy. A very strange, enchanted boy.

Ah yes, Southerners, the most closed people in the country.  Ugh!

I can't argue that but I do try to see the best in all people. Too trusting I guess.

You just have to find a small group of people who accept you, even one person, it makes all the difference.

HAH it's like a self-help seminar lol. Thanks though. Ive never had problems getting to know people, I'm just trying to meet people...like me. I've never had that before because I've never been open about it for fear of being discriminated against. I've only had one donor before so.....

Well, I can understand family and previous friends understanding, but it is really hard to find new friends who will understand.

Yes, there is also always that.  I dont understand how parents can be so cruel as to critisize their children about what they believe.  My mother always says "whatever you believe is real for you" and that is how I think all parents should feel.

the times have certainly taken a toll on peoples minds, but at least things are getting better.  People are becoming more and more open to things like us.  Soon we should be able to finally come out of our shell and actually live and meet in public places without people yelling at us, telling us "you can still be saved."
