    Re homosexuality.
    I’m old school and raised Christian. It would be false of me to say how much I love these people, when I have little or no contact with their culture and community. I was brought up in a time when if you acted with fear you were labelled a “homo”. Or likewise if you admitted liking feminine things.
    But I try to stay open-minded even if it doesn’t come naturally. Even I couldn’t understand why they wanted to marry, when there is such a huge divorce rate among heterosexuals. I have nephews and nieces who have been with their partners for 10, 15 years with kids and have not tied the knot yet. As if to say “Marriage? You can have it!”
    We Aussies may seem backward, even primitive to countries who have legalised gay marriage already.

    hey anita
    ever thought of skipping a few days, a week even? From TB I mean.
    The break might be good for your mental health.

    Dear Juanita:

    Thank you for sharing about my Homosexuality topic. I get to know more about YOU! Thank you.

    Now as to your last note to me, about skipping tiny buddha for a week (unthinkable, to me!), can you tell me why you are proposing it? Am I bothering you here, Juanita? Do you need a break from me? This can be arranged… just a break, that is, not answering your posts for a week (I may be able to do so if I breathe deeply and resist my fingers reaching to the keyboard…)?

    Please let me know, I do want to know your motivation. If I don’t know your motivation in suggesting the above, then I don’t have the opportunity to maybe learn something from your suggestion.

    * Good to see you back! No pressure though for you to be back often…

    I think I already answered your question anyway.

    Dear Juanita:

    Good to know you are here, wait it is …after 2 am your time.. late. Well, as far as your suggestion for me to stay off tiny buddha, I still don’t know what you meant. Instead of guessing or “jumping to conclusions” (Traditionally, like you wrote, it is thinking the worst), I ASKED. But I think it is okay with me if you don’t feel like elaborating. The smiley face does make me feel better regarding the worst case scenarios of what you may have thought. As you can see, it matters to me what you think…
