On Coming Out

I know, I haven't been blogging for quite some time now. But on my way to work, I figured how I'll end my torment.
And I figured something which I believe others would likely follow.
Surely, guys who are, how do we call them - confused? Know for a fact that people will tend to tell them that they should "come out when they are ready." Or for others, "it's not about what people think."
What they obviously leave behind is who they are in the process of trying to follow these principles. It's not about proclaiming to the world WHO YOU ARE, but rather, WHAT YOU CAN DO.
So fuck all the pretenses. Or all the judgments of other people.
Just be - as the cliche goes - true to yourself. Act according to what FEELS RIGHT FOR YOU.
If you don't like it when people judge you - then fine. Leave it there. Live a hidden life. And just let time run its course if it's willing to "out" you.
If you just want to live, and get all the questions over with. Then go ahead. Shout it out. For all you know, it opens up new chapters for you.

In my case, I'm not comfortable with it yet. I know what I want and that's to have children, to marry a girl who would be willing to accept my flaws.
Point is, I'll keep it secret. I won't decide on who I am based on a question that someone raises. I'll just say it if I want to.
