A Dream and Some Thoughts

Last night, I had a dream:

I was sitting in a living room, not sure where, and my boyfriend was with me. Now, in real life, I don't have a boyfriend. My father was with the two of us together. We were all watching a movie. I'm sitting on the couch and my boyfriend comes in and sits down right in front of me to watch the movie. I give him a quick shoulder massage, lean my head on his chest and say, "I love you." And, with my head on his chest, I fall asleep (in my dream, which is weird).

Then, the next morning, my boyfriend has to leave back home while I stay with my parents. I don't know why I wasn't going with him. As he says goodbye to all my family, like he was family, my dad says, "Andy, you'd better go and kiss him goodbye." I obliged him. And that's when my dream ended.

Boy George said, "There's this illusion that homosexuals have sex and heterosexuals fall in love. That's completely untrue. Everybody wants to be loved". In this dream I was in love. I was deeply in love with this man. My family loved him, too. We all loved each other. There was no sex. Not even a hint of sex in that dream. Just pure, unbridled love.


Now, some thoughts:

I stumbled upon this quote today: "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." The great Dr. Seuss said those words and they couldn't be more close to the truth. True friends and family love each other, no matter what.

"The Lord is my Shepard and He knows I'm gay." I don't know who said that. But I find immense comfort in the knowledge and truth that the Lord knows exactly who I am, where I've been and where I am going. He knows me better than I know myself. Sometimes, I forget that.

"Live you life in a way that those who don't know Christ will want to know Christ because they know you." Again, this is an anonymous quote. I find this to be a perfect statement of Charity to any member of any Christian religion. No one is perfect. But, we can emulate the Savior in all aspects of our lives. Jesus and our Father love everyone. Likewise, we must do the same.

And those are my thoughts for the day.
