I am twuly jealoth. No handbooks, private forums, Cleveland holidays, or $400,000 mansions for us subbies. Not even some sympathy for our lispth. *sigh* To get serious for a sec... "It is better to have loved and lost, than never loved at all." I buried my best friend Danee who die of AIDS on Oct 23, 1995 (a day etched in my brain). It was better to have known Danee, loved her, and lost her. The alternative is to have never met her, and that would mean having missed out on 6 years of happiness with an incredibly beautiful person. Danee was an incredibly talented, courageous, street-wise Puerto Rican transexual who had lived as a woman since she was 17 yeras old. She was a Las Vegas showgirl, worked in LaCage in the Latin Quarter/NYC, she was Miss Gay Pennsylvania 1990... Miss Gay New Jersey 1991... Miss Gay Michigan 1992. Danee enriched the lives of 1000's of people with her dancing, her wit, her style, and her compassion. She probably raised more money for others doing charity work - than she ever made for herself in her life. The pain of Danee's loss is unquestionably worth the price. It is better to have loved her, despite her loss... I am a better person for simply having known her. I don't see how twue love... could ever be bad for the soul. The Greek philosopher Plato wrote: "No great work of art was ever created without pain."
