I Am Not Alone

For reasons you can understand, I can’t post this comment publicly. Your last blog post…I feel that on a deep personal level. My experience with that perfect perfection has ruined how I see myself still to this day. It might all have been acceptable if it was real or true…but the reality of the lie makes it sting all the more. I guess I miss out on heaven number one, too. But honestly I don’t want it if it is full of Mormons.

So very true. I wish you were brave enough to comment publicly. The LDS lie has killed me. But I'll tell you a secret. There is no heaven or hell. There is only ever right here and right now.

Truth! Mostly because I have agreed to not speak against the church publicly with my parents. I just don’t on socials but don’t hold my tongue when it counts the most…my children will NEVER know the hate and ugliness that is the church. I hope to be brave enough to speak my truths, but knowing that others that I have known in my life have also left... I am not alone, and neither are you. I see you. I’m sorry for your pain, know that you occupy space in some of my favorite memories.

Girl Who Deserves A Chance

 Ryan, You asked me once, "Why do people love me?" I'll tell you why... Your energy is what makes people fall in love with you. It's how you make them feel. It is not your body, your money or your looks that make you magnetic. What makes you unforgettable is how you transform the hearts of people around you with your simple presence. That is your energy, that is your power, and that is why people love you. Jessica,     the girl who deserves a chance...

Backstage Stooge

 Dear Ryan,  You're delightful and a real treat to be around, a regular jack who's so down to earth. What you see is what you get with you. No pretenses, no false fronts, no ulterior motives or ill intentions. You're one to say what you're thinking with your eyes, you can never hide behind lies, and your sighs give you away. Although you're an exceptional actor, you shed those roles only to recreate yourself whenever you feel you need to. I suspect you've got some secrets and perhaps you very well could be a demon in disguise. But I seriously doubt the dark side of you isn't just as beautiful as the light side. You're no one's fool and you're fooling no one. You've simply got to walk in any room and your energy speaks for itself. You're one of a kind, and don't tell anyone, but I think my heart might become rather fond of you. Your co-star and backstage stooge, Jonah D.
