Dear Angelique and Group Members,
 
 Thank you all for your heartfelt welcomes.  Sometimes it is so hard to  
see my own love as something beautiful, especially what has defined my  
"lovableness" for so long throughout my life has demanded my own  
self-betrayal (especially sexually).
 
>Your love is beautiful.... :) I'm glad you have joined us. 
>    Blessings!
 
 It are these unconditional validations of the inherent beauty of my own  
love that I have felt to be absent for much of my love.
 
 Thank you Angelique.
 
 When my parents ask for me for a hug these days, I am unsure whether  
they are asking for my "compliance" to the church, or if it is 
genuinely unconditional.  Sometimes it seems more the former.  I want 
to love them, but not at the cost of betraying my own self (sexuality esp.).
 
 To my dad especially, it seems so important to him that I be his  
crossbearer of "family values"....and he is such a loving dad....which makes  
it incredibly difficult to "go against" what has constitued the basis of my  
morality growing up.  I can no longer go against myself, however.
 
 It is so hard, because I realize that much of my life has been based on  
my parents and the giving of there love to me.  Often the choice seems to  
betray myself or betray my parents.  How wonderful (not)!
 
 I thank you all for your support and love.
 
 It is also refreshing to hear of "goddess" when all I have heard is of  
"God" my whole life  and praying to "Heavenly Father"  When I pray, I find  
it extremely challenging to not start out "Dear Heavenly Father...." For  
this has been so thoroughly engrained in my mind, and so often colors my  
perception of God as tough and masculine.
 
 Now, even if I pray "Dear Heavenly Father," I usually compliment it  
with "and Heavenly Mother, and Divine giver of eternal light..." this helps.
 
 Heavenly Mother, Divine giver of eternal light bless the people on this  
list deeply, may your light and love envelop them in its resplendant glory  
and bliss forevermore.
 
 May they feel your love in their times of greatest hardship, so that  
they may realize that love is all there is...ultimately forevermore
 
 Bless you all!!!
