Try it again, shall we?
Once upon a time, there was a girl who wished to be more in touch with a distant friend. The friend kept in touch with other friends in a land called Xanga. The first girl was called Danielle, she thought long and hard before deciding to visit the land Xanga. She suffered all sorts of harassment from her closest family members. She assured them she did not plan on becoming a citizen of the land, merely a visitor. Her family continued to warn her that if she was not careful she would be "sucked" in to the land, never to be heard from again.
As the days passed Danielle enjoyed speaking with her friend and hearing the news. Suddenly, she found her sister had also begun to visit the land of Xanga, but this sister was soon "sucked" into the land of Xanga and became a full fledged citizen! How Danielle mourned for her sister, wondering why she had left the kingdom of Nonbloggers to become a Xangan. Before much time had elapsed, her own mother had taken the oath and was an active participant in all the Xanga rituals.
A day came when Danielle's sister and mother approached her, they wished to tell her that things were not as bad as they had thought, that things in the land of Xanga were worth participating in. She slowly began one fine day in May to let her voice be heard to a small gathering in Xanga. To her surprise she found that her words flowed out quickly, that speaking with her hands, which up until this time was considered drudgery, was indeed a pleasant thing to do.
As the months passed she had several people outside of her small group ask to be included. It was indeed a hard thing to be asked to voice her thoughts to others. To people who may not know her, to people who may not understand her. The last day of August that year she spoke for the first time publicly, it was so well received that she has continued until this very day.
To be continued...
