The big world and the small world - which is which?

They are all seemingly very kind and loving people, they are also universally deeply struggling. Their humiliation and sometimes despair is nearly constant, but so is their proclaimed love and hope. They are both men and women and dishonesty or infidelity is almost unheard of. Their links, beyond to each other, take you to sexually compatible (and active) writers and these can take you well beyond. This world is very intimate and surprisingly genuine and near to my take on the human condition. These writers are important to me. Figuratively and sometimes literally on the other side of the world are the bloggers I have originally read and continue to enjoy. They freely traverse the planet like I travel this corner of my state. They think in ever expanding paradigms of positive potential social implications of the web, technology and blogging. They obviously also network, although not at all anonymously. They too are a most genuine group also wrestling with some fundemental human questions. These people touch me and are important to me as well.
