Ah, those days when the wakening of our neurotransmitters and neuropeptides are wailing to ignite our purpose for being here. Indelible memories, indeed.

Thanks Galen--love these long words--it's all about chemistry I guess!

OMG! I loved that story! My first girlfriend was at age 5, Terry C, who was a neighbor and we were on again, off again for 6 or 7 years! After that I, too, had the summer camp girl friends, though my camps were only a week long, but always the goodbyes, the letter writing for a time, then ... life goes on.

Thanks Steve, for letting others see that young kids (like us, then) can be actively in love on basically an adult-level. Surprising, isn't it?
