Gratitude and Optimism by LOweetzieLIbatTA, literature

Literature

Gratitude and Optimism

Gratitude For What We Have Achieved, And Optimism For What We Will Achieve I wasn’t feeling much optimism and gratitude this past Summer and Fall. I was too busy doing activism for No on the Marriage Ban, which turned into No on 8. Optimism was really pissing me off at that time because I felt that because it was so preemptive, it would block progress. “If we all just do nothing and assume we will keep same-sex marriage because our state is so progressive, we’ll surely lose it” was something I found myself thinking and being annoyed by every day. I was so focused on keeping our newly won marriage rights in California that

What's Next, The Family Dog?

It will always be a mystery to me how people can have something as detestable as being against equal rights on their conscience and consider themselves decent human beings. If I’d grown up in the times of segregation that would still be something I’d never understand. Call me sheltered, but I was genuinely shocked when I recently heard this anti gay marriage “argument”: “What’s next, the family dog?” Genuine stupidity never fails to shock me, so this statement was doubly shocking because it was coupled with bigotry that was just as genuine. Living in San Francisco for the past three years has spoiled me when

Being Queerspawn Is Fabulous

My parents got divorced in 1995 when I was 8 years old. About a year later a man I barely knew moved in with my dad. The situation was not discussed with me honestly until I was sixteen years old. In the meantime, during those awkward seven years, kids at school and sometimes even random adults asked me about my dad. Who is that guy he’s always with? Are they gay? Is it weird? I never knew what to say because all I heard at home were lies. Coming out is hard to do in West Texas, especially to your young daughter who was never taught that being gay isn’t a bad thing. Even when I was younger I knew I was being lied to, so as I became

Another Escape by LOweetzieLIbatTA, literature

Literature

Another Escape

With the grace and artfulness of a fox, The fragile nymph is approached. Therapeutic instincts take the lead, Tears are kissed away. A fluttering softness appears, Like a botanical paradise of exotic flowers. Pain escapes with gentle pressure, An ascension of love is born. Two hearts beating together, Simultaneous electric bursts, Wet blossoms open in fast motion. Eternal peaceful calmness remains.

Cloudburst of Emotions by LOweetzieLIbatTA, literature

Literature

Cloudburst of Emotions

The first rain shower Appeared to be an accidental acid rain But hidden was something exquisite The next few times it barely sprinkled Twas a light, gentle rain Harmless and beautiful raindrops The clouds started to drizzle slightly harder More intense than before While artfully staying subtle Overcast skies suffocated the flowers The water drenched the rose garden Until every delicate petal was soaked Seemingly out of nowhere Came a thunderstorm so atrocious That it made the Earth shake The lightning screamed with agony The clouds cried harder Tears of painful love At last the sun peeked through the clouds And all that was

When Words Are Not Necessary by LOweetzieLIbatTA, literature

Literature

When Words Are Not Necessary

Reluctantly, I waited in the room for the bell to ring. I stared out the window at the drizzling clouds and the translucent rays of sunlight. At long last I heard the bell's familiar piercing sound. I hurried down the stairs and out the door to the crosswalk. I watched the gentle rain barely splash the ground as my checkerboard Vans stepped on the white stripes and bare asphalt. I looked across the parking lot to find my car when the most exquisite of male faces caught my eye. He was standing in front of a mass of glittering cars wearing his ebony trench coat and holding a single scarlet rose. My. Secret. Agent. Lover. Man. The slight breeze

Sola Scriptura by LOweetzieLIbatTA, literature

Literature

Sola Scriptura

The Bible can be interpreted many different ways. Some will argue that it's symbolic. Many say that only bits and pieces are relevant to the world today. Others will say that it is completely fictional. This confusion is creating madness! Christians have debated the correct approach to interpreting the Bible for centuries. There is only one right answer: everything in the Bible should be taken literally. Trying to find hidden meanings and symbolism within the Bible is impossible and difficult. People have been trying that for decades and they still haven't come up with any solid answers. That is because there is no way to be sure which ar

I GOT SOMETHIN' TA SAAAAYY!!!

Gotta love Strangers With Candy. Now the real reason for this entry is actually serious. There aren't many political issues I care about with great passion these days, but one takes the cake. Most of you reading this probably never thought about what it would be like if your family didn't have legal rights or protection. It's something most people take for granted. What if no matter what, only one of your parents was actually legally your parent? What if your parents couldn't get married? Or what if you wanted to have the option to get married, but were discriminated against? And for what? Your bedroom hobbies?! Because the person you fell

Really I'm just tired of looking at that "Finals are over" entry. I have some photography, writing and ads from the Spring I could put on here. Maybe I will, eventually. I really should. That's why I have a deviantart, eh? I'm kinda thinking about making a new account... but I probably would buy a domain before I did that. It would be an online portfolio and I'd put it on that business card I'm going to make for myself one day. I was just going through my journal entries and deleted a whole bunch of old stuff. What in the hell was I thinking putting all that on the internet? I re-read the first entry and found out that I used to not give

And thank God for that. I'm going home to Texas tomorrow for a month. I couldn't be happier. I might even have time for some personal side projects. All my best finals from Fall '06 are in my gallery.
