I stumbled upon your Ron Paul and Gay Rights discussion a couple of weeks ago and was hooked. I am happy you aren't leaving, I think you are very inspiring. Thanks for sharing.

I don't mean to cheapen your pain by falling back on "to every thing there is a season" but truly there is, and it must be your season to move on. Like MBMQ I felt bad that your co-workers didn't see what a beautiful soul you are, and betrayal is such a bitter thing to accept. I'm sure you're going through an inner storm over this, but now it will start to get better, I'm sure. Look at all these good thoughts coming your way right now.

I'm one of those folks who has a hard time with the "chin up" thing; you took the high road so many times and in so many ways. A lesser man would've cared about retaliation and grudges rather than wisdom and justice, which is what you have sought again and again. Even if this feels surreal now, a bit of betwixt and between, you ARE on to bigger and better things. And you're on a path that will enable the bright shining of your heart and the keen qualities of your mind to benefit the human family in new and wonderful ways. Look out world, Brian's a'comin'!!! And all God's people said--Amen! Like many of your readers (uh, fans!), I’ve found myself wondering how you managed to be true to yourself while working where and with whom you did.

I'm glad you're back. I remember reading a poem after Rebecca's death about the elephant in the room that was about a parent losing a child. I always associate that saying with her death. It's ironic that you used this title for a post written on the anniversary of her death. Yay. I’m glad you’re back.

I love reading what you write and I feel a little self-conscious about Who-Could-Be-Reading-This, but ultimately I think you've made the right decision to keep writing and sharing who you are with others. It would be terrible to become silent after all that you've accomplished by provoking great discussions and opening people's minds. :) Brian, you’re such a good influence on me.

It is so awful what your coworker decided was his place to do to you. It sounds like you are excited to get away from there, so congratulations and good luck in everything that you venture to do. I'm glad you decided to stick around, too. You truly are an inspiration. Brian welcome back! It is so awful what your coworker decided was his place to do to you.
