One grave, two souls

View all sizes

My first life has not gone well. So much so that I do not fear it's end.
And so it surprised me when I realized just how much I DO fear the end of my second life. The idea of Ray Monnett's demise bothers me a great deal. In my two years in SL it seems I've done more living then I ever did in rl. And I see my avatar almost as another living being. Almost as a father sees his son. And the last thing a parent ever wants to think about is the demise of his offspring. Yeah I know I must sound like an escapee from the Linden mental hospital.

Anyway, there are a number of firsts for me with this pic.
This is the first pic of me in my "normal" avatar. My first use of rl images mixed in with SL. And
my first use of GIMP.

No it doesn't sound crazy. I have this fantastic idea that when I log off, Cala carries on in sl without me. Living a real life with her sl love, and that even if something happens and I can't log on any more..they will carry on till the end of sl......now who is crazy? hahaha

Its a wonderfully thought provoking piece Ray.

Hey Ray this is a pretty good idea for a pic. And your absolutely right. For me the last year was a year full of new experiences. Somehow the ava I created got its own dynamic and now its a completely separate life form my rl which I have to care for and where I can do all the things I cant do in rl. I cant imagine anymore to live without my sl. Btw: Gimp is a great tool and its absolutely free which is the best.
