36. What about boundaries? As Anne LaMotte says in Bird by Bird, we each have our own emotional acre and we can do anything we want on it. We can also include and exclude anyone we want. If you are a private person, draw a clear boundary between your private life and your online life. You have a multiplicity of selves and you do not need to bring all of them online. The ones you DO bring online, however, must be AUTHENTIC. Victoria Pynchon ADR Services (c) 2009
