How To Love Yourself

Recently,

I've been receiving messages in my Youtube messages box from a certain person with a pretty random name:

First of all, let me say that I am overwhelmed that someone would actually come to me seeking advice on how to live their life.  He goes on to explain that he thinks I'm a professional guy here on Youtube and that he values my opinion.  What can I say but thank you.  Thank you very much for coming to me.  I hope that whatever advice that I can lend you, it might help comfort you and allow you to live life to the fullest.

The first thing that you have to realize is that no matter who or what you believe in; Whether you believe in a God, Mother Nature, the Tooth Fairy, or Nothing at all, you must realize that you were created just the way you are for a purpose.  


Sexuality is such a complex thing, and one that I cannot even begin to explain to you.  There are scholarly articles, studies, experiments, charts, graphs, surveys, you name it, they've done it when it comes to sexuality. The only thing I can lend you is my experience.  


I, too, have gone through that whole phase of trying to figure out who I was Am.  But the thing that you have to realize NOW is that you are who you are and nothing is going to change that.  You shouldn't try to change that.  You should always try to improve yourself, which brings me to my next point:


Why do you say that you are "going to hell", and especially for something that you cannot control?  I've seen so many people lose their minds over this.  They do SO much to cover up what they are really desiring just so that they won't be suspected of being gay.  It's sad, really.  Married men with children, chasing after other men because they "can't control" themselves, when all they have to do is be real with THEMSELVES.  


I know it's  a tougher pill to swallow for some than it is for others, but that is the key.  You HAVE to swallow that pill if you're going to live a life in which you are comfortable with yourself.  I think "swallowing that pill" is a bad analogy because it makes it seem like you coming to terms with yourself is a "bad" thing.  It may be "difficult" but in the end it will be a celebration, and I'm not talking about a "running down main street at the gay pride parade in nothing but a thong" kind of celebration.  Rather, you will come to terms with yourself, just as I did, and realize that being gay is nothing important.  It really isn't.  

Is it right for someone to walk up to you and say "Hello, my name is Frank.  I work at Wal Mart and I am a homosexual"?  The answer is no.  As a matter of fact, there are a lot of things in life that are not important.  The only important thing is that you are a good person, that you respect other people, and that you live your life.  That's it.  God smiles on all of us, and frowns when we sin, and no sin is greater than another [now whether homosexuality is a sin or not is another topic for another blogpost that I'll get around to later... as well as my beliefs in what "God" is].  I hope this helps you out.  



If you [anybody reading this] needs any help with understanding something, shoot me an email at blasianFMA@gmail.com, and I'll post something here.  You'll be anonymous, of course.
