Where Gay Love Is Illegal…
Posted On September 16, 2015  By chromedust  And has 3 Comments

Being authentic, embracing who we are and born to be is essential for inner peace, growth, and happiness…
Some never have even the slightest chance-

CNHXfhAWEAAj5kT“God made no gay but if a man accepts himself as gay he is a devil”” the priest told Brice before he prayed over him to “cure” him of his “disease.” To the distress of his mother, the prayers did not change Brice. “You have to choose – either change or leave!” His mother demanded. Brice didn’t consider this a choice he could make. He always knew he was Gay. “Since you have chosen to be gay, never contact me again!” Brice has not spoken to his mother since…
We all get caught up in our personal injustices. Each and everyone of us have a story. But we must not forget those throughout the world who are still met with violence and death and persecution for being simply who they are. LGBT rights are human rights..

So true, so true!

In my family, the gay son never told anyone, moved to the city, and refused to speak to his grandparents or father. Decades without contact. The grandparents are now dead; the father without hope of ever seeing/hearing from his son. How heartbreaking for both. Be true to yourself and allow others the same privilege. Don’t assume a negative reaction when none was ever given.

    Pam-

    I’m so sorry…

    It is never my intent to give advice or try to change peoples minds. But simply share my story and issues that touch my heart. My experience.
    Adapting to change or difference can push us far outside our comfort level. It can sometimes cause anger, disappointment and great heartache. Being patient – with yourself and with others. Giving people – especially those we love – time to process and adjust. And trying to never assume the worst.

    I’m so sorry this happened within your family. I really appreciate you sharing your experience. And for reading Farm Stories.
    Much love and healing to all…

Thank you for your kind words. I can only love them all and be accepting (warts and all, as we would say). I appreciate your blog and your honesty with your life experiences.

Blessings and much love to you!
