Because my mother has HUGE anxiety, she taught my siblings and me to be afraid. We were afraid of her, my father, and everything in the house. We spent most of our childhood and then teenage years outside in the yard, the nearby woods, with our farm animals, and with our neighbors.
From about age 8 to 17 I also spent hours a day pracitcing the piano and saxophone as a way to escape.

Mari I'm sorry. What I did was go to the creek,and catch butterflies,and turtles at the University of R... lake. I went roaming through the fields,and caught dragonflies,and things. I looked at thunderstorms,and clouds. BF
