Up Late, Thinkin'....

Hi Loves! Before I say anything else, let me FIRST thank all of my new followers! And, of course I must thank my loyal followers that have been here since day one. I really appreciate all of you & I'm happy you find my blog worthy of following :-) So, with that said. This entry is basically about life. I was just watching an episode of MTV's "True Life." The topic was about young adults "coming out" to their family about being homosexual. Since I am a parent, it really got me to thinking about life and things that I may have to face in life. There were some parents that completely disowned their kids over the fact that they were gay. I mean, they kicked them out of their house and didn't speak to them for years. Now, I don't know if I'm crazy or what, but there is NO way I could ever EVER disown my child over them being gay. In fact, that sounds completely insane to me. Not having a relationship with my babies would kill me. Then there were others that treated the kids as if they had some disease and it was something they would just have to deal with. It's baffling that in the year 2010, these issues and mind frames still exist. It's as crazy as racism, almost like another form of it. So, as I was thinking about my life as a parent, I put myself in their situation and imagined my babies in that situation. I can honestly say that I would love them just the same. As long as they fall in love with a good person that has great intentions and is an overall great addition to their life, then I'm just fine. Why is it so hard for people to understand my way of thinking? I feel so bad for all the kids in the world that become disowned, teased, assualted, and depressed over this. It's not fair at all. Well, I was just thinking about this so I thought I'd share. If any of you have anything to add or if you just want to say hi, please do so :-) And, thanks again for becoming a blog buddy :-)

Till next time....
