I would like to get real with y'all this morning. I have always struggled a bit with my sexuality. Don't get me wrong: I'm crazy about my husband and have been since the moment I met him. But even as a child, I was sexually curious about girls. Who isn't? I believe everyone is a bit bi-curious but just might not be comfortable enough to admit it. I'm going to go ahead and say today that I am occasionally attracted to a woman. I would never pursue it beyond an innocent kiss on the mouth, but that doesn't change the fact that it's there. It exists. And I don't want to hide it any more.
I grew up in a very conservative community in Indiana. Racism and homophobia run rampant. I never felt like I fit there, and that's why I moved away as soon as I could. The worst feeling EVER is not being able to be true to yourself, and I never felt I was able to just be me in Indiana.
Judge me if you will, but that's not your place. I know who I am. I love who I am. And God loves me no matter what you think.
Keep praying.
