Second Life’s Positives

l am a resident of SL( Secondlife). l have been on sl for almost 2 yrs.

l get tired of hearing all the negative publicity about SL when actually there is more positives that come out of SL than negatives.

For example alot of people donate money from SL to Charities etc in RL( Real life), Major charities.

Recently during Australia’s horrific Bushfires people in SL got together from many different countries and held concerts, Candle Vigiles and much more in order to raise money for the Fire victims, l bet that never made the news.

l wont disagree that some bad does happen in SL but it  is far outweighed by the good that happens. SL residents have participated in the Relay for Life, Breast Cancer awareness and many more, it is more than a game.

So before you redicule what happens on SL maybe you should first understand what good we do here.

I have heard people say “You are living a unrealistic life” but the truth is l think sometimes in SL it is more realistic than RL.

I personally have met the greatest guy in the world and we are planning on meeting very soon. He knows more about me than my family and understands me more than most people l know.

People have said to me “How can someone know you if you have never met”? Well when you cant meet and all you can do is talk to each other then you tend to talk about everything, so you  get to know that person very well.

I have met many people here from different countries and different walks of life but on here we are all the same.

l have friends now that l will have for life.

l even had a friend that passed away in RL that l met in SL it was so sad and sadly l never got to meet her in RL.

It is true Secondlife is a Virtual Game but behind the Avatars are Real people.
