it was my mother.. she was in the Cult and I was born into it...as soon as I felt old enough (16) I ran way.. and I went back about a year and half later for 3 days, and then I was kinda forced to leave again.. never went back after that. My mom on the other hand.. just left about 4 years ago. She had been a member all that time.. I was interviewed by the San Diego Tribune.. a few years ago.. about it all.. crazy stuff huh?
oh.. hope all is going well with you

I love you. Please tell me where to get your book if you ever get one published. I'll be your first groupie. I have such an extreme respect for your writing.
astrid:
I like your website, Miss Bella. Very cool.
I'd exchange writing with you except for one thing - mine sucks. I don't show it to people. I'm too shy for that. Your writing, however, is wonderful.

wow you are quite the popular girl. And a lovely poet. Are you thinking of publishing a book or have you already I would totally buy it.
"Be patient with all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions, now. Perhaps you will then...

I often wonder about how I will better help my children, when I have children, learn the things that I've learned in life -- and I learn that I can only give them the tools to learn, nothing more.

hey girlie, thanks for wishing me well, I hope I am better soon. I just need to make myself a home here to fill with my belongings, not in the chaos of this house, though I love my foster family. I have thought about going to camp, but it is not warm enough to go nightswimming yet. Soon though, and the boy I love will visit, and all will be well with my world again.
DREAMS OVERCAST

it's tough to let go of the game. we've been playing it for so long that even when you see it for what it is it's hard to just walk away.
ADAPTATION
"A peacock had wandered in from the marketplace which was next to the nearly empty courtyard....Halprin threw a wafer onto the flagstones. The bird picked it to bits there on the flagstones and ate the pieces without once looking up at them.
"You remind me of that peacock," he said.
- Raymond Carver, from "The Augustine Notebooks"

Don't fuss.
Please keep pushing forward....
