11. “I don’t have time for my first life ~ why
do I need a Second Life?”
12. “I don’t have time for my first life ~ why
do I need a Second Life?”
It’s is NOT a “second life!” It is a rich, rewarding,
entertaining, fun and professionally valid extension of
my life, the only life I have to be a part of a creative
and challenging new realm.
