repondez s'il vous plait

or R.S.V.P. for short.
in the blogosphere, anything goes. weblogs can take the form of an online diary or an ongoing commentary. whatever you post is instantly accessible and readable by 580 million internet users. mine is very eclectic -- i use it as my thought depot, my travel portmanteau, my memory bin. (i draw the line at mudslinging and veiled trashing. if i have something against a person, i say it to their face.) some of my readers requested that i put a comment box, but i politely refused because i don't need to have my thoughts/actions validated. imagine how surprised i was when the emails kept coming. this one, wanted to talk about my chance meeting with a celebrity a few summers ago. i couldn't call it just "one of those letters", it was very warm and personal, and i guess, that's what i want from readers. then came more. the latest email tugged at my heartstrings.

I am blown away by the sheer beauty that is within you! I too believe in God and love him with the flames of a thousand fires. Yet you are truth and innocence and wonder and wisdom and love all wrapped in a cute little package. I know that that sounds strange coming from a girl that you hardly know and you are probably freaked out yet i am just in awe. My name is... I live to love, and i love to live. I haven't yet had a proposal yet i have had offers of 'forever relationships' but thats all to talk about later. Anyway, you are the true meaning of follower and leader. You see all that is there and all that could be there and i like that. I love the fact that you see love in a lot of things. I admire that trait for few have it... I thank you for making me understand that there is innocence in the world still, and that it is very peaceful and beautiful. God Bless You and May all your Prayers and Hopes and Dreams Be Answered,
to have this kind of effect on people overwhelms me. i asked for permission to post the letter so others would know it really is a beautiful world out there. your views can impact a stranger's day, for good or ill. i choose to post non-edited, non-copied versions of me.
