MISSION CONTROL
Welcome, weary travelers & eager adventurers!
Who can look around our amazing planet in the cosmos and not be filled with a sense of mystery, wonder, and feel a craving to explore it? The more we reach out to see, to discover, to feel and experience life in all its fascinating variety, the more we want to share, to inspire, and invite others along for the journey.
Few make this journey alone. The human soul yearns for company, for friends, for connections, for family. People to laugh with. People to cry with. Who hasn't vented to a trusted friend after a stressful day? Our very survival, if not our happiness, depends upon these loved ones.
In situations like these while writing, I've found people with amazing talents--and personalities to match them--to fill my sails and keep flying. Special thanks to all of these inspirational people, games, & sources!
