"The Story of My People" Edoardo Nesi: Our inner thoughts are our greatest inner riches and they mean little, almost nothing, unless they're expressed, and everything we fail to say or write or live is lost----mere dust. So, how much have you lost?

I have been doing my best for over 30 years in all the 3 ways you mention above.
I must say that this forum that I was introduced to about 7 years ago has been a great way to express my experiences in, I hope, a way to help others get out.
