For every step forward we take, we seem to follow it up with a leap back.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09603287422043758944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6662316995305232662.post-53604309327429283262014-11-08T14:01:48.419-08:002014-11-08T14:01:48.419-08:00I look around me at my neighbors, my family, the p...I look around me at my neighbors, my family, the people and friends I interact with daily in RL, and find it so hard to believe what I see on the internet. The people in my RL are NORMAL! The internet seems a fantasy world, a badly written alternate world consumed with hate.<br /><br />I can only be glad I am the age I am.
