If you are reading these words, you probably have a
spirituality that is open and accepting of things that fall outside of what
your society thinks of as “normal.”
Perhaps you need more drama in your life and are looking
to start a conflict.
We cannot help those of you in the latter category. We hope
you find your choices happy and fulfilling.
To the former, we say, “Good for you,” it is such a relief
to take a small step out of the closet.
Do you, simply, not go to a conventional church and have a
few friends who think as you do? Do you meditate? Cast spells? Read blogs
written by fairies?
Taking those steps can be hard, but the more “out” you get
the more you can sigh with relief at not needing to hide yourself.
The friends who are true friends will understand. Some will
even ask questions or join you in your spiritual activities.
Others will, simply, fall out of your life. When that
happens, you will feel that huge sense of release, as though a giant rubber
band has just snapped. You will also find that for each person who exits your
life, two or more will enter.
The energy you spend hiding yourself can be used for much
more inspirational and creative pursuits.
You will find that friends who have been an enriching part
of your life will not care or have suspected your wonderful weirdness all
along.
Exit the closet at your own pace. Test the environment to be
sure that you are ready for the emotional impact of your choice.
Then run, strut, leap and dance your way out of the closet!
Chances are, you will not be dancing alone. ~Silas
