I visited with a lesbian friend last evening. Her history is similar to mine…we were both married 20 years, with 2 kids, and we went through the divorce process more or less at the same time.

Here’s a thought-provoking and informative movie for people who are struggling with guilt and oppression resulting from conflicts over religion and homosexuality.

There are only 4 shopping days left and I have a present for everyone on my Christmas list EXCEPT my partner. I don’t even have a clue and I am starting to go into panic mode. Nothing seems quite right.
