The Art Commune Reading Circle

@JLBDreamer Your background sounds fascinating. I, too, enjoy anime. I liked it back in high school but then my husband reintroduced me to it in the last few years. Asian culture, particularly Japanese, equally fascinates and frustrates me for the same reason- it's so different from my Western mindset, but I really enjoy learning about something that challenges me.

I think you're absolutely right about the loss of culture. My parents divorce left me estranged from one of my parents. I reconnected in the last four years and I'm just now learning things about that side of the family I was totally unaware of before. It's really neat hearing about our family history.

I enjoy mythology too - I've been doing some research into different kinds of European mythology (different from traditional Roman and Greek). I've learned a lot about Celtic and German mythology. I've also been learning about Aboriginal mythology. I've started into learning about South American mythology as well. I didn't think about combining my interests in mythology with the Sims.

I am really looking forward to reading your story now.
