Ouch. Right in the feels.

I don't know the history behind this. But a recent pic on PostSecret brought back a range of emotions.

I hope the person that mailed in this postcard soon realizes he can be happy and normal AND gay all at the same time.

This may be a good time to those holding on to the secret like the one above to reach out. I'm here (contact form on the right) and there are a multitude of gay Mormon bloggers here to chat it all out. Please don't be afraid to ask for help/guidance/support.

I need a break.

I need a break.

I need a break from church in general.

I need a break from LDS friends who make snide comments about homosexuals; who find the thought of two men falling in love as "disgusting."

I need a break from trying so hard to be loved by members of the church, when I get more compassion and empathy from people who are no longer Mormon.

I need a break from family members who 'still' ask me when I'm going to get married.

I need a break from worrying so much about the wellbeing of Single Adults in my stake. Some are just plain crazy and need professional help; not just a priesthood blessing.

I need a break from church leaders who give the evil eye when I decide to stay at church for just one of the three hours.

I need a break from following (and obsessing over) the lives of a certain group of gay Mormons. Especially the ones who I apparently make "look bad...."

... and the ones who put gay folks into the same category as Hitler.

I. Need. A. Break.

.......and I need a break from writing about so much negative stuff. :) So, here's a pic of Chris Pratt. Ain't he pretty?
