I-Speak: what does it feel like to be alone?

Something curious...

Started in 2004, this was meant to be an online diary for the purpose of documenting my life and serving as a repository of my thoughts. I am attracted to the idea of leaving my own imprint in history, hence my attempts at recording my life.

Of course, it's the world wide web and others can easily come here and read/view/leave right away, so I've also taken to posting some announcements, links and requests to anyone who takes the time to read.
