" I mostly write and do poetry. I do know there is a scrapbooking group on here and well as an art group. Do a search and they should come up.

Isn't it nice to have something that everyone enjoys? Do you know how many alters you have? "

" YES! drawing out my feelings is helping me a lot.
I have a lot of my artwork posted in the artist group. Feel free to check it out.
Some of it is also posted in my profile.

I draw things that I am trying to work through in therapy and somehow it seems to penetrate all through me. "

" I had a weird experience with art a few weeks ago. I have a friend that I have know for about 30 years. Recently she has started drawing. She gets a feeling from God and then draws what he tells her. A few Sundays ago she didn't get anything from him. I think I got in the way and received her picture. I told her what I saw and she drew it. I can't draw!!! So maybe we will get more pictures together to draw.

" APPLE, that's cool. I've heard of people like that before, having gifts. And now that I know about MPD, I wonder if it is alters. I knew a lady once, who just sat down at a piano one day, and knew how to play from then on, just like that. She says it's a gift, too. Maybe it is!! "
