Hello

[lane]

Hi, my name is LaNeece. I am currently going 15 years strong with my partner. We have a daughter that is graduating HS this year, I remember when she was two . . . I have struggled for years (especially in the beginning) with who I am. I grew up going to Christian Schools, going to Baptist Churches and attending Bob Jones University. My first "encounter" occurred between my freshman and sophomore years in college. It was like being repelled and drawn at the same time. My head said that this wasn't right because of the way I was raised, yet I knew, in my heart, that this is what had been missing in my life, that I was finally home, the missing piece was finally in place. It's been a long road, but it is so much better now than it ever was. I am sure that I will tell bits and pieces of my journey in the threads here, but for now I think you may have a sense of me. I look forward to interacting with you all.
