I'm glad to have come across this site. Your stories are very similar to mine and that isn't something I can say too often. This encourages me greatly, and I hope to talk with you guys in-depth later on.
A little about me:
I hope I can learn from you what you guys have to say. It would be nice talking with…

I am not exactly sure what to talk about on my first post, so I guess I will go for the topic on my mind as of late.
As I strive my hardest to achieve the impossible all on my own, it constantly reminds me of the isolation I feel. No one has ever stood by my side and encouraged me or told me I could do good things. I was 18 years old when the first adult looked me in the eye and said, "I believe in you." It was my vocal coach at the time and she would tell me nearly every lesson,…

A community for support and fellowship for gifted persons, those close to them and associated professionals.
MyGiftedLife.org is not a high-IQ society or corporate entity. MGL is not a business, nor is it a formal charity. We do not currently operate on any grants or fund-raising. Our mission is to provide a place where people can provide fellowship, encouragement and information to each other when needed.
MGL is for gifted persons and those involved in their lives, including parents, families and friends. Educators, psychologists and other professionals are welcome, as are others who may simply want information about giftedness.
Mygiftedlife is a safe haven. It's a place where anyone who experiences life from a gifted perspective can share their unique selves and weave a common thread going beyond the tapestry of any usual forum to one based upon expanding awareness of experiences, self, others and the world we live in. Mygiftedlife is a place for delving deeper. I've come here and been understood when that seemed impossible. Gifted people and those advocating for gifted children navigate societal structures that present a great challenge. Support can be hard to find, but here it is.
"Hey, all the inane shallow chatter about stupid stuff at other forums got you down? Come here for more in depth and intelligent discussion about things that actually matter."
