I must have been screaming out, because my dog jumped up onto the bed, and gently nuzzled me awake. We lay together in the quiet dark while he softly growled at the ghosts that had howled in my nightmare, and fell back asleep snuggled next to my sleeping partner, who is expecting our son in February.</I><BR/><BR/>That is some of the most sublime writing I've ever read.

I grew up in the diocese and intended entering Moore College until I saw how I would be treated as a gay man. (That was after I realised the "treatments" were not working). It has taken a long while but I have finally found a welcoming Anglican parish at St James, King Street 2 hours of travel away. The more of us who speak out about the lack of love and compassion found in the Diocese today, the better. Thank youBrian Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10802352695666737088noreply@blogger.com
