I must say, though, that if this testimony was the cause of his being nuked, then this is not a place I'd want to be. <br /> The writing is heart-rendingly raw. Honest expression is difficult, and even more so when the topic is not so accepted in our society. I applaud him his bravery. As I said, I don't live similarly, but in every person sits the vulnerable soul that cries out for understanding, acceptance, hope and even love. In this testimony I see nothing immoral or illegal, and I am so very happy for this author to be able to stand up, even in such a venue, and cry out that he too is alive and deserving respect. I am humbled by that, and I hope to one day know myself well enough, love myself well enough, and be so confident as to suffer such slings and arrows for who I am.<br />Thank you for your comment and warning. -randyrandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16659230610436922709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8458786710697760224.post-15171227760829487042011-03-23T16:52:18.388-07:002011-03-23T16:52:18.388-07:00Sorry to say the two blogs by the author of this p...Sorry to say the two blogs by the author of this piece have be nuked by blogspot.

I'm glad you know who this is...I did leave a note and invite him to ask this to be removed if he wished.<br /> "Against stupidity...." That's deep. I may have to use that.

As someone whose predilections are not remotely acceptable in modern society, and who could easily be attacked, or even killed, just for being myself, I can certainly relate to his feelings of 'otherness', and the frustrations of having to live my life in hiding. <br />'Against stupidity, the gods themselves contend in vain' - Schiller.<br /><br />Love & best wishes<br />Sammy BSammy Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11257879009293024225noreply@blogger.com
