hello
I am intrigue by your writing but mostly by your name, Especially being a male. I have a son that has the same. He has been taunted, here in the U.S. since most caucasian, call their daughters ARIEL. He will be eighteen on aug.26. He is currently in basic training for the army. I will have to show him your artistic quality when he gets back, but most of all so he can learn, that he is not the only male, with that heavenly name.

Well said
Several years ago, I visited my father in a max. security prison. That was one of the most awkward experiences I've ever had. All these emotions flying about the room, some of them unidentifiable, and very few knew how to react to them. It was, indeed, a silent room.

The drama of humanity goes on and on.
