Destruction

Over the weekend, I received this comment to one of my posts. I am going to reply to it but only after some thought. I am sad that this comment was done anonymously, but perhaps he or she will have more to say later.

Grace & Peace, Joe.

I am sorry for your pain.. and i won't go into the rights or wrongs of being gay.. But one thing I do have to ask.. and perhaps you should as well.. You made a vow when you and your 'wife' got married. You have children.. you have a responabilty to them.. even though you have 'come out' so to speak.. does that mean you have the right to throw away the life you have, the one you built with YOUR wife? with your children? Does your happiness come before your families?? Is it really worth the destruction that your causing??not only to them.. but to your soul as well.. ?? Think about it. please

Just because you came out, does not mean that you necessarily will walk away from your family. Maybe this person thinks you are going to leave them high and dry?

AS you stated before - this issue has been on the table for many years, although no one talked about it, so the writing was on the walls.

Now that you know where you are going in your life, you might become a better father to your children for honesty builds character, and you may be a good friend to the woman you were married to.

One must remember this is not always about "them" sometimes - life is about us. And sometimes you have ot be selfish where certain issues are concerned.

Taking care of You first is necessary at times. Unless anonymous had read all the past entries, they would have no idea what they are talking about???

Just a few thoughts for you to think about before you post your reply.

Courage - Unity and Faith my friend.

Peace.
