Anonymity

It’s not just not sharing my last name. ~ Tina C
Anonymity is not something to hide behind. ~ Bonnie L
Anonymity, the condition of being anonymous.
Anonymous, not identified by name; of unknown name.
The spiritual foundation of all these Traditions, 
ever reminding us to place principles before personalities.A safe haven, a place where people know you to your core
and pretend they haven't met you when at a party,
people who have "mutual friends" and truth be told
are closer to each other than to their sisters and brothers,
a receptacle of secrets, your darkest secrets told
to a roomful of strangers with absolute confidence
they'll go no further. A fellowship where two people meet,
fall in love, plan to be married and have to ask
their friends for last names to mail invitations.
A safe haven, where it's really true
What you hear here, whom you see here,
when you leave here, 
it will stay here.
