"People only see what is visible, measurable. God sees into the heart. He not only forgives our failures, He sees successes where no one else does - not even ourselves. Only God can give us credit for the angry words we did not speak, the temptations we resisted, the patience and gentleness little noticed and long forgotten by those around us. Just being human gives us value in His eyes, and trying to live with integrity makes us successful before Him. God redeems us from the sense and fear of failure because He sees us as no human eyes can see us. Some religions teach that God sees so clearly that He knows all our shameful thoughts and nasty secrets. I prefer to believe that God sees us so clearly that He knows better than anyone else our wounds and sorrows, the scars on our hearts from having wanted to do more and do better, and being told by the world that we never would." ~Rabbi Harold Kushner

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. ~Dr. Seuss



I want this so badly...so badly to have a "coming out party"...not because I want to come out and start dating girls...but just so people know that I like girls and it isn't this secret that I carry.


And I'm not entirely sure where or what this desire stems from...I guess I see how much better my relationships are with family and friends who know.
