The Calm Before the Storm

Finally had a good amount of free time and I came around to thinking about my blog. I never really got into it but now I actually have things to share, stories to tell. I might be writing this for my own kind of catharsis, but I hope that some of you might at least find it an interesting read.

To give you a taste of what's to come, here's what to expect:

  • Currently I am 18 and a senior in private, Christian high school, about to graduate
  • I've been struggling with homosexuality for the past five years
    • Expect (appropriate and tasteful) stories about my experiences with that and how I've handled it and grown from it throughout high school
  • I will be posting about Christianity in the modern society in America
  • I might be posting about other experiences that I've had with my friends and their morality
    • I'm trying to avoid cookie-cutter stories

Lately I've felt this desire to record my thoughts and events, but that's more of a personal matter and has its own historical reasons. I have the urge to discuss, to share my ideas with others and to contribute to others' ideas as well. It's something I've come to learn from many times in the past, especially when talking to people that are smarter/wiser than I.

P.S. Reading older stories of mine makes me glad I never really got in to writing about them haha.
