Salt of the World and The Spice of Life

Seeing your younger siblings get married must make you feel bad. If you ever knew me…yes it does. At the same time I’m not. There is no way that I could really ever be upset that my siblings have gotten married. Don’t you feel more pressure to date and get married because of it? There…

If you aren’t there to hear it, who cares what words I use? Honey…just because I do not hear the slurs from the horses mouth, does not mean I will hear what you said somehow else. They’re just words! Thoughts lead to words, words lead to actions, actions lead to habits, habits lead to examples,…

How can you remain part of a church that hates you? Where I currently am in my community at church I receive no hate, no distaste, no pettiness, no disapproval…at least publicly for my sexual orientation. Why don’t you just go out and be openly gay? I am, I am not one to hide my…

How are you so on top of your game all the time? Honest to goodness I am not on top of my game and very rarely am I ever even in sight of that moment. I am so far from the top…but I know sure as hell that I am working my ass off to…
