We're Not In Kansas Anymore

I was reviewing some of my older posts today and I have to say that I'm a little bit saddened. Not by my older posts, but really by my newer posts.

I'm not disappointed in my writing. What am I saddened by is that when I started my blog, I was able to keep things fun and almost frivolous, with just a touch of outrage and anger. Now it seems to have completely flipped around. I feel like now I spend more time venting and yelling than I do enjoying what it is to be gay.

Partly, I know that's because I feel that we as a community are being robbed, sacked, blinded and beaten more and more everyday and that if we don't start mobilizing now it will be far to late. I think you've heard me say that once or twice… a day… But I want to be able to return to a more fun-loving blog.

Sadly, that probably won't come for a time yet. The biggest point of this blog was for me to get out things that I might have a hard time vocalizing. Not because I'm shy or anything, but literally I have a hard time orally expressing my thoughts some times. Writing can be easier a lot of the time. The second reason I started this blog was to entertain, inform, and motivate, in just about equal parts. I feel like I've almost forgot about the first part of the trio.

I suppose where I'm going with this is that I'll be doing my best to redirect this blog to more positive stories soon. This past month of constant negativity and anger is taking a toll on me as well.
