I just stumbled onto this via Google. I was so thin and young then (L). I ran twice. Once for Daddy's Leather 2004, and placed first runner up, then for Hayes Valley Leather 2005. First runner up again I decided not to become Susan Lucci, so hung it up after that - LOL. However I may consider running for something next yr :). We'll see. It takes a lot of commitment and time no matter what. I felt at the time, that a title of some sort, would give me the extra incentive to do something for our community. It can open up doors. But I also realized that, one does not have to have any title to do something worthwhile for others. There are so many I know of that do so much more to help others with no tile etc....
I just sometimes ask myself, what can I do to make a difference. Leave some sort of legacy. But the important thing is to do it not to leave a legacy of one's self, but to just do it because you want to. With no expectations of applause. Just do it from the heart. I don't want to grow old, and feel that all I did was take from this world, without at least giving something back. I know I will find my niche.
