I cringed when the screen popped up asking me which category to list my page under. "Alternative Lifestyles" is not an accurate description. It's not an alternative anything. If there is one thing in this world I want people to understand, it is that I have not chosen this. My life has been one of bitterness, loneliness, and depression. If someone truly thinks that I have "chosen" this "alternative" life, then they are sadly mistaken.
On the same note, I do want to say I am not angry that I am this way. At first, it was very confusing to me. I didn't understand why my Creator had given me this. I have come to realize that He is not the reason for this either. I do not shun or hate my homosexuality; I have learned to embrace it, no matter what the cause or the reasons.
I have decided to make this page in hopes that someone will gain understanding from it or maybe even be more comfortable with their own sexuality. Don't get me wrong. My sexuality is a mere aspect of my life. I do not attempt to flaunt it in front of anyone. If my tombstone only reads "He was a homosexual," I will have failed in life. I just feel this is important for me to do, so here it is. |
