This is really really really worth reading, especially if you have ever lost someone close to you. Or if you have ever felt depressed. Or sad.…

All the initial work we did on our Integral Activism Plastic Bag initiative is now up on the I.D. Project Site HERE. It was fun for the whole family. We’ll be planning a lot of stuff in the coming days, weeks, months to put the plastic bag out of existence. Now back to writing.

Piggy-backing off Eva’s post, here’s an interesting site of letters-never-sent…love and other:   www.letterineversent.com I also have 3 love/lust related pieces up on All Things Girl at the moment….let me know your thoughts! http://allthingsgirl.net/writings/ —–<—@ x 12 -Sarah
