      -:-"Life may not be the party we hoped for but while we're here we should dance..."
      
      Above quotes were copied from email forwards that you and I  have read the last email years of our lives.

         Okay, here goes~
         Your affiliation to family, religion, or school bears no importance in who you really are as a person. Only you alone can determine that through how you conduct yourself in the world and in how you interact with others.
