It was three years ago I ventured into a new world. 
Not really sure ... and alittle afraid of the unknown. 
So many people saying, 
becareful ...  be alert,
there are so many weirdos out there. 
But I took the chance, 
I did venture into my new world. 


And I can honestly say I have never looked back. 
I can honestly say I am happy I ventured into this new unknown world. 
The computer is a beautiful place ...
One of the most beautiful places I have ever been. 
So many countries I have been to, 
I have learned so much about cultures, people, feelings and dreams. 


Of each and every friend I have made from these countries. 
A friend from Austrailia,
such a sweet gentle man with a true love for his family. 
The sadness of his sister passing away showed his deep emotions. 
A friend from Scotland, 
has taught me all about Scotland and their ways of life there. 
We have become very good friends. 
A friend from the Ukrain and I have cried over the baby she lost. 
A friend from Texas and I have shared everything. 


We are always there for each other, 
through sickness and pain. laughter and tears. 
We always have a ((((hug)))) and a muahhhhhh for each other. 
We call ourselves partners at crime lol. 
We plan to meet in person one day very soon. 


A friend from Oklahoma whom my family and I have met in person, 
have become very close, sharing dinners and laughs and BBQs. 
We speak of future plans and dreams, we share tears and laughter. 
We share our loneliness for our homes. 
I love you guys.

 
The many wives of military husbands (rock) lol. 
We're always here for each other, listening and crying, 
loneliness for family and being away from home. 
They helped me so much while my husband was deployed, 
for four and a half months. 
They were there for me they helped me through. 
They let me vent and they let me cry. 
That's what true friends are for, being there for each other. 


There are just to many places and friends to mention. 
Yes, the computer is an amazing place, 
it can turn your worst day into a happy one. 
It can take away your lonely tears and put a smile on your face. 
It sometimes makes you feel like you are home. 
Being so far away from my home, 
I would have to say ... MY COMPUTER 
is one of my best friends. 
I am never alone, just flip a switch and there are all my online family. 
With something new and exciting to say. 


I know some people are very against
the computer as I once was. 
But I am so happy I  took the chance, 
I am happy I opened my eyes to the new world of cyber space. 
I am so thankful to have so many wonderful friends, 
I have met here right in the warmth and safety of my home. 
And each and everyday we all meet right here at my home. 
The people that mean so much to me. 


Yes, it is true we may never meet in person. 
But none of you will ever beforgotten. 
GOD BLESS YOU ALL. 
God bless my computer to LOL. 
You can read and send e-mails, 
play in a game room, chat in a chat room. 
No matter what you do or where you go on the computer, 
You Are Never Alone. 
Online friends never let you down, 
they always lift your spirits. 


After all I did meet my wonderful husband on here. 
What more could I have asked for. 
So I will stay on my puter, and chat to my online friends. 
Visit far off places and keep in touch with old dear friends. 
Why would I want to leave? 
The computer is a beautiful place. 


Dedicated to all my online friends.
