work by todd alexander
"there were always in me, two women at least,
one woman desperate and bewildered,
who felt she was drowning and another who
would leap into a scene, as upon a stage,
conceal her true emotions because they
were weaknesses, helplessness, despair,
and present to the world only a smile,
an eagerness, curiosity, enthusiasm, interest."

That's a great quote and perhaps it reflects the essence of Anais Nin. We have a blog, http://anaisninblog.skybluepress.com which is updated frequently. Hope you can visit sometime soon! --Paul Herron
Gosh, my sister! I wonder for how many of us this would stand as anthem?
