Tonight, I decided to read all what I have written on my blog. I wanted to see how I would react to it. I have to say that it was not as intense as I would have thought. I had a few tears reading my coming out to my parents and also a few shivers when reading about my coming out to my cousin Sandy.
However, for the most part, I didn't react a lot.
It makes me think... Maybe, as I have come to accept myself and have successfully come out to the most important persons in my life, I have distanced myself from my past and the fears I had. It seems like I am really looking ahead, going forward.
I can't help but think that it is a good thing.
I feel at peace and I am happy. I don't know what life will bring me next, but I am looking forward to it.
Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting to take the time to read back through the places and head spaces we once were. Time has a way of settling things in our hearts and the comfort I find in reflection and consideration on my own journey is often the only solid signs of progress that I can honestly trust.
I am glad to hear these thoughts from you. Life is a pretty interesting and amazing adventure. :)

What Daemon said. Plus, in my experience, actually writing about things tends to diminish the power those things hold over us.
