Searching the Web

It started innocently enough, but by now a whole day has gone by and we're just a fraction closer.     

Most of the time was looking through other multiples' journals and web sites to see what was going on.  One of the sites we came across was Astraea's.  Astraea's Home Page .  She's like an online multiples' activist fighting for rights and much more.  We had known of her at least as early as '97, but we've been out of mainstream multiplicity for quite a while.  There's now things called otherkins, medians, and plurals.  You'll have to search that all though on your own. 

Many multiples not only don't believe that multiplicity is a disorder, they also have been disenfranchised with a lot of the theraputic community.  Too much bad blood on the concept of "integration."  Personally, we don't believe in integration.  We believe in communication.  Many don't believe in med management either.  And, there is a lot of harm done to the general community due to a group of horrid people and their destructive rhetoric on false memory syndrome (they don't believe those who recount childhood sexual trauma in their adulthood).   

We lost sight of our pressing goal, to find information about our core and if she has our soul.  We did ask Sr. Tess today about what the soul is.  Her answer was so simple that we could have tripped over it.  Basically it would be God breathing life into us, and, after the body died, it would return to God.  Now we'll have to think more about what it means to have God inside of us.  Our Sarah says, "its like having another part!" 

The little we did find though on the core was disheartening.  In general they are not real strong or able.
