Hello Ladies,

I wanted to give you a brief update of what is happening in my journey.

I had such a positive experience with Urania and fell head over heels in love with the women who were helping me, that I nearly got my heart broken when things didnt work out. Not to worry, the best thing that has come out of the experience is that I count these ladies as friends, even though we will not be sisters in [insert GLO name here].

I have contacted a few other groups and have gotten a not so positive result from one (but very glad that I got to speak with someone at least, yay) and now I move on to

Polyhymnia, to be honest with you, this was/is one of my "Dream" organizations. I feel such a connection to them, of course superficial in nature) but nonetheless, I have that connection.

Now I'm just in the very beginning stages, I have had a few email conversations and have some paperwork to fill out, of course this by no means, means that I will become a member, I'm sure its to send to the AAs in my area so see if they are at all interested in sponsoring me.

You know? I feel a connection with all these groups on so many different levels that it can be confusing, but sitting down, writing out what I want and focus on those things makes it easier for me in this process, I've said before that I will always have a place in my heart to the GLO that I pledged in college, but that doesnt mean that I can't find a different home, a place where I will be just as happy, that's how I feel right now with Polyhymnia.

There is no excitement here, I'm just going on a journey and will see how it turns out, I know that I will find my home and it was the place that I was supposed to be all along, it has just taken me a while to get there.

To the ladies in Urania, thank you for all the time and effort you put into helping me with my journey, you don't know how I felt that you help some random person get into your sisterhood, such a wonderful place and I really do wish that it had worked out, but that door is closed now (it took me a while to see that) and perhaps a new one has opened.


I learned early in life, yet sometimes I need reminding that if I get to excited about something, that something usually doesnt work out, so now I'm just along for the process (what I mean, not getting excited, just being).

As always I will keep everyone informed of my journey and I hope that during this journey that no one has or will get hurt, life is just to short for that.

I think I'm rambling now.....
