Real life Photos - Shock and awe.

Last time, my best SL friend Kezzy, showed me some pictures she had taken at a real-life SL social meet up. Every time I see pictures of the real people behind the character, I have this completely illogical awe and shock response. Another one of these things that I seem to have no understanding about. Why is it so strange to me ? My RL job is all about meeting people and communicating, but to suddenly see the embodiment of people that I chat with in SL just freaks me out !!!

I think I feed on this anonymity thing a bit. Maybe, just maybe, SL gives me something that i just seem to not be able to get in RL, therefore when reality creeps in my whole dream feels threatened.

In a interesting discussion with Kezzy, she told me that 'what you see is what you get'. I wish I could be like that. My life is full of contradictions, insecurities, broken promises and secrets. If I had a saying it would have to be 'What you see is what you get, on that day, at that time, no guarantees going forward' :-)

Have you heard that song , I'm a bitch, I'm a lover, I'm a child, I'm a mother, I'm a sinner and a saint' . Yep that's me. Does that make me bad ?
