In this Journal, I will attempt to strip away my protective veneer to view and communicate honestly what the truth is as I perceive it. My intent is to grow, for without an honest evaluation of the truth, how else can one fully absorb life's more difficult lessons and benefit by them. If I do this in secret, then I am still hiding behind a protective veneer, so it is being published online. If you find this Journal, you are welcome to read it and hopefully grow from it as well.

A Homosexual Dream

Last night among a series of dreams was one I'm not aware of ever having experienced before.

It was a brief homosexual dream with another man, one that so startled me that I immediately awoke.

I've long supported gay rights and equality of marriage and I strive in everything in life to put myself in the other person's perspective so that I can be compassionate.

But this dream was strange to me, not erotic and I don't understand it. Yet if I don't reveal it in this journal I would be dishonest with myself and with anyone else who may read this journal.

In life, I've been married to my beautiful Anne for 49 years and I have no desire to pursue other intimate relationships.

Later today after meditating on this dream, I believe it reflected my desire to help others, men and women and to be loving of them, not judgmental, as I strive to be compassionate by putting myself in their perspective.

The dream was not erotic but contemplative, meant for a better understanding.
