A Sojourner in a foreign land

“Between me and the other world is ever an unasked question: unasked by some through feelings of delicacy; by others through the difficulty of rightly framing it. All, nevertheless, flutter round it. They approach me in a half hesitant sort of way, eye me curiously or compassionately, and then, instead of saying it directly, ‘How does it feel to be a problem?’ they say, 'I know an excellent colored man in my town;’ or, 'I fought at Mechanicsville;’ or, 'Do not these Southern outrages make your blood boil?’ At these I smile, or am interested, or reduce the boiling to a simmer, as the occasion may require. To the real question, 'How does it feel to be a problem?’ I answer seldom a word.”

Your sexuality should not be a burden to people! Neither should your faith! If it bothers people, it’s because they’re still working on their heart, not because you’re being disrespectful.
