Thought it polite to introduce myself(selves?) before wading in. (Or, as I often do, just cannonballing off the springboard.)
We are a naturally plural system - there are many of us, we're all in one physical form, although some here remember having their own physical form at one time or place. I'm not sure if these are parallel dimensions or past lives or what. A few of us have theories. Not all the theories match.
We do know that we're real. And that we've been here as long as the person whose name is on the birth certificate. And that although there have been the usual share of ups and downs in this life, none of us were created by them. I suppose beyond that, details might not be all so important.
I'll probably be posting here more than the others, although my name's not the one on the birth certificate. My own birth certificate has a name I detest. My name of choice is Ten.
I look forward to being able to discuss and learn from those here.

Welcome to the community, I hope it helps you as much as it is helping me.
