Those of us in the healing professions are lots of fun! We're interesting, creative lifelong learners who like to connect with people...and we spend a lot of time alone. Many of us spend our days one-on-one with clients (and one-on-one with our computers)...and even the most introverted among us eventually needs a bit of human interaction. So this is a social group for coaches, therapists, bodyworkers, medical professionals, etc. Let's just hang out, make friends, and enjoy ourselves!

Objects was mostly quiet, not finding much to say about itself, at least nothing equal to the photographs and poetry and sculpture language seemed so content and able to lavish upon it. When they made love, something was born, but soon enough it was on the lam. We are an artist collect …
