= = __**A. TEENS AND CELEBRITIES **__ 1. "LOCAL COLOR" media type="youtube" key="cNagBpfpB70?fs=1" height="206" width="256" The passion to live should never leave us no matter how hard our life experiences have been. There are times when we feel adrift, in need of "trees" as "rooted men" to hold us on to life or even wanting to see "clouds as places where angels hide". Sharing experiences should be our ultimate goal and "home" nothing but the places and people where we feel true to ourselves. Let’s try and find our LOCAL COLOR, the untouched essence of life!
