Have You Ever Thought? By Wanda Williams

Have you ever stopped to think or asked yourself what would you say, what would you do if your son, daughter, brother, sister, or friend told you they were Gay, this beautiful child you have brought into the world, this little soul you have nurtured loved cherished, this amazing sibling or friend you grew up with trusted, loved does it really matter? Will it change the way you feel about them, does it define who they truly are by saying they are Gay, that they are attracted to someone of their own gender, that they have fallen in love with someone of the same sex.

No it doesn’t , these people are the same amazing beings we cherish & love, but many in this world see them in a different light some see it as a sin, when did we become judge & jury, it saddens me to think these beautiful people are bearing the brunt of societies fear, ignorance, & judgement, when did some in this world think that they are above another human being that they have the right to project out their own inner hatred into the world just because their beliefs their opinions differ from another.

I thought we had all moved into a new era, I suppose some choose to be narrow minded stuck in old patterning, I wonder how on earth being Gay would bring shame to a person to a family to friends, isn’t it true the majority of us get to choose who we want as a partner, husband, wife, friend in this life, so what is the difference?

I wonder what it must be like for these beautiful people who are attracted to the same gender being out in the public eye with their partner for all the world to see, some too afraid to hold hands show affection the normal things couples do, in fear they will be ridiculed shamed or abused by some people who chose to cast out their ugly words of judgement.

Now ask yourself this: What would you do if your child, brother, sister, friend someone you cherish told you they were Gay? it makes you stop & think doesn’t it!!

Would you be able to look into the eyes of your child, your brother, sister or friend & tell them you hate them, you don’t love them anymore would you turn your back on them, cut them out of your life? or will you stand proud be supportive & love these cherished souls & know their path in life comes with difficulty.

Hatred starts in one place SELF be responsible for Yourself First, step back from the Judgement the Fear the biggest lessons in life starts with You, people that stand in judgement of others may very well one day be the ones that are judged, when confronted with -“What would you do if your child, brother, sister, friend someone you cherish told you they were Gay”?
