photoPeople don't believe me that I am shy face-2-face, despite being a right cheeky monkey on some Forums. Orginally from the West Country, but transplanted to Reading in early 90s. Joined OUT for both Gay Male & Female friends, to break the feelings of isolation after the breakup of a long term relationship.

When your spirits are low
and there's no where to go
when life is hard for you
its time for you to stop and think
about what you really want to do

sometimes we live our lives
controlled by others or
give over control to faith or destiny,
an unknown journey ahead
when you should be leading the way
not, being led

so it is the way of things
sometimes it all goes wrong
your left feeling alone and don't belong
this, is what destiny brings

finding the new way ahead
now that's easier said, than done
but to live on, this challenge must be won
take control, you know you must
or die, be cremated, returned to dust

so you see you must go on, try
you know, at the final journey's end you die
so it doesn't matter what you do
try to find yourself, the real you
and you will have all you need.

... This beautiful poem was sent to be by a fellow OUTer Quickfind:petre2007 that she has written herself.

I wanted to share it with you (with Petre's permission) as it really spoke to me and really hit home with how I am feeling at present and have been since I was made redundant and with several other issues going on, including family pressure etc.

I hope you find it as inspiring as well.
