MyGiftedLife.org

MyGiftedLife.org was created when the Supporting the Emotional Needs of the Gifted site's forums closed.  As one of the many gifted people who had benefited from the fellowship of that community, I realized that a need existed.  I decided that it was my turn to offer support to others, so I organized a place for our community.

This is not a high-IQ society or  corporate entity.  MGL is not a business, nor is it a formal charity.  We do not currently operate on any grants or fund-raising.  Our mission is to provide a place where people can provide fellowship, encouragement and information to each other when needed.  MGL is for gifted persons and those involved in their lives, including parents, families and friends.  Educators, psychologists and other professionals are welcome, as are others who may simply want information about giftedness.

I contribute webspace and do my best to administrate the website, but many others have helped to make the site possible and many make it work every day by participating.

Iconoclast

Mygiftedlife is a safe haven. It's a place where anyone who experiences life from a gifted perspective can share their unique selves and weave a common thread going beyond the tapestry of any usual forum to one based upon expanding awareness of experiences, self, others and the world we live in. Mygiftedlife is a place for delving deeper. I've come here and been understood when that seemed impossible. Gifted people and those advocating for gifted children navigate societal structures that present a great challenge. Support can be hard to find, but here it is.
