I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm disabled by chronic pain due to degenerative disc disease. Tried the gamut of holistic approaches followed by spinal fusion surgery and fell into the 20% who achieve no relief and have no prospect for it. This is some of what I do to fight the effects of years of ongoing pain killers, muscle relaxers and sleep deprivation.

I'd like to meet:

I'm into music, the arts, computers and photography.I'm not interested in amassing a huge list of "friends" who never participate in my page. In an effort to focus energy toward those who reciprocate, I've recently removed nearly 60 "friends" from my list.If you request an add, make use of the built in message function to introduce yourself. If you're disinterested in doing so, chances are it's a miss. :)

Books:

... . . imagine a puddle waking up one morning and thinking, 'This is an interesting world I find myself in, an interesting hole I find myself in, fits me rather neatly, doesn't it? In fact it fits me staggeringly well, must have been made to have me in it!' This is such a powerful idea that as the sun rises in the sky and the air heats up and as, gradually, the puddle gets smaller and smaller, it's still frantically hanging on to the notion that everything's going to be alright, because this world was meant to have him in it, was built to have him in it; so the moment he disappears catches him rather by surprise. I think this may be something we need to be on the watch out for.
--Douglas Adams, The Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul

Heroes:

..True friends, old and new, who stand by as well as up for others with understanding and consideration as well as people who champion the causes of the disabled.
