U2 made me find myself once again

Hi Wireland!

While listening to the Best Of 80 - 90 Limited Editon by the n - th
time, I've realized how much U2 means to me, and to my
individuality. This has been kind of a confusing year for me (I'm
going to finish college next month), so many things have happened
in my life (If could summarize all that has happened since
November 97 I would take up all Wire space!), including Popmart
=), so I've been feeling kind of lost, like if I was floating out there in
the midst of nothing, and really confused.

This afternoon our local radio station decided to play the whole
record, so I turned on the radio and lost myself to U2... and that
was one great way to stay in touch with myself, with this bottom -
deep Babyfly Mary I have left somewhere along the way. Anyway,
this has been really a great feeling for me, dancing and singing to
the GH and the B - Sides while the dusk began to enter through
my window... All my worries and confusion just flowed away from
me (the only "negative" feeling I've got inside me is a severe case
of Popmart nostalgia =). I felt so in touch with me, with this soul
inside me, and found that little space that only belongs to U2's
music, that maybe selfish space inside of me because I won't allow
any other person in there... folks, it has been a really nice (I'm
trying to find a more accurate word here) experience.

Thanks to all people who cared and gave me a second of their time
by reading this, and sorry to all who thought this has been useless
bandwith waste,
The Peruvian Babyfly,
Mary
with Santiago Popmart's Bad shining in her heart.
