Ugh...

Sometimes. I really wonder about things in life. I mean, fundamental things. I question a lot.  I've always tried very hard not to judge others for anything. Everyone has to live their own lives and make their own choices about what to believe. I have friends who are Christian, friends who are atheists and friends who are Satanists. Me, sometimes I'm not quite sure where I fall on that spectrum. I was raised as a Christian, and I do believe in a higher power. I believe that people should have the right to choose whatever it is they believe in with no one forcing it down their throats.

That being said, most of the Christians I've met seem to judge others very harshly if they don't share Christian values, or at least profess to, at any rate.

There is something wrong with that picture, in my opinion. I know that people aren't perfect, but isn't the entire premise of Christianity supposed to be based on loving God as well as loving your neighbor?

My own family is like this, to a certain extent. I get accused of being a Satanist (jokingly, mind you, but, still) because I like vampires, Harry Potter and metal/rock music.

Heaven knows what they'd do if they found out that I like to read stories about gay men. I don't even want to think about it.

Apparently, being a gay man means you aren't a man at all in their sight.

The fact that my family thinks this way hurts my heart. I love them, but I don't agree with their beliefs and opinions on a lot of things.

And yet, I'm in the position of being dependent on them. This is somewhat galling to me, but because of my situation, it is what it is.

Sometimes I wonder how I keep from going nuts living here.

Do not touch me....

I have discovered I really do not like it when people touch me without asking. My aunt kept rubbing my arm while she was talking to me, and all I could think was: "Get your hands off me!" What's up with me? Is that weird?

( A Holiday Drabble from yours truly  )

This December has been busy!

And, now I can breathe a sigh of relief, because all that I was working on is DONE! Imperfect text colours and all. Now I just have to sit back and see if people like my writing or think it sucks. Whooohoo! So happy to have that off my mind. My drabble for the dove_drabbles December prompt is posted, and that was the last bit of fic I had planned to write this month. Yay! I might just sleep all day tomorrow from sheer relief.  I sort of feel like doing a happy jig. Kinda.

On a not-happy note, I'm thinking about the shooting in Connecticut today. It's so close to Christmas and I keep thinking those kids won't get to have theirs, and how sad it must be for their families. It truly hurts my heart that this happened, and I pray those babies are somewhere happy and safe now. My thoughts and prayers are also with their families.
