I just want to say, that if i could, i would give you the biggest hug EVER, because everything you've gone through and thought, i've gone through and thought at one point or another. I too, was born and raised catholic, went to mass every sunday until i was 17, and never really thought in depth about god or religion or any of that, until i realised i was gay and suddenly, i was a part of this thing that hated who i am, and i couldn't accept that. I wrote this story in the space of only a few months, but the ideas behind it, the theories and all the beliefs that are expressed in it have been going through my head since i was 17, when i started questioning what religion was to me. I just knew that while i accepted God, there were a lot of things about the church that i couldn't and wouldn't accept, and writing was the only way i knew i could truly express myself.

Writing this story has really helped me accept religion into my life again, and like you, i've started going to mass again, which i'm quite enjoying now! I'm really glad that this story has helped you and that you enjoyed it.

Thank you so much for such a beautiful, sincere and heartfelt comment, it really means a lot to me. :)

(we have the footprints on the sand story on a picture hanging up at home, and it really comforted me as a child, so i had to include it!

oh, and on a lighter note, i LOVE your icon, it's so cute! )
