While there have been far too few posts in the last many months, it is not for lack of thought or movement in my life.
Since I have last posted I have:
moved to Austin
started developing new and wonderful friendships
realized so much:
One of the main reasons that I moved to Austin was that I wanted to be free to develop the community that I wanted to a part of. When I reflect on my friends, I see that they are a fair and wonderful representation of the many parts of my life. What I have realized is that this statement is lacking in one area: the gay part of my life. As much as I try to fill my desire for lgbt community through conversation with my many wonderful, heterosexual friends, something important and filling is missing and that is true community with lgbt members in my life.
I am excited at the prospect of what Austin holds for me. This next chapter of my life will be about exploring my life in the gay community while holding on to the other aspects and relationships that are so dear to me and who I am.
