Happy 2014!
Looking ahead, I'm going to have a very busy couple of months at work, so I might cut back on blogging for a while. I'll probably just post on Fridays. That said, I'm giving thought about what this blog is for. Does it do any good?
I know I'm not really socially adept, especially when I wax philosophical and such. I tend to be a bit clinical and detached, showing little to no emotion. As an anonymous blog, my friends don't read the blog. (Actually, I did have one friend from my non-online life comment on my blog without knowing it was me.)
I have so few readers that I wonder if it's worth it. But it's nice to get some ideas written down, even if they aren't really thought through as well as I'd have liked. I have no ambition to be famous, but I would like to reach out to those who would appreciate it.
I wonder how many people there are out there like me who are committed to the gospel yet whose orientations are gay? There are a few online individuals, but most of us don't feel the need to connect, it seems. And I totally understand. What is there to be gained by coming out? Alienating members who don't understand while at the same time inviting hate mail from anti-Mormon commenters seems to be a high price to pay for putting yourself out there.
That's one reason I still remain anonymous. It would be nice if we could be more open, but the world is not yet there.
Still, I enjoy posting, so I'll just slow down a little. Have a wonderful new year!
