Do what you do, how you do it. Comments are comments. Soak them up, and do not let them fog your lens. There will always be the opening for a person to find an answer they like better in another place. Put out your feelings along with why you feel them, validate to yourself but let others see it. That is it. You need not explain deeper, even when they want you to. The answer to “But?” can always be “Our experiences are vastly different in this area. This is true from my place and heart”
I could say that I was to young when people saw I was an atheist. I did not even know what one was. Still, I paid for it every day. When I hear people say I know there is a god but just want to sin, it slays me. Here is the kick. I know that they can not see it differently. It was beat into them from birth. Somehow it did not hold to me. I do not know why. So really all we can do is share what we feel, and who we are. Let the watchers decide how they absorb it into their lives. Do not fall into argument. Only answer questions, and remember that just saying I do not know is an answer at times.
The point of doing it should not be to battle back and forth. You can put your material out there just to help others see a likeness. That’s it. Why not cure just one, if that is all you get, then you may find a valued friend for life out of it. Worse, would be you wanting to do it and never do. If it means enough for you to come here to talk about it, I think you may want to go do it.
