Starting a blog

So I am taking a lesson from my youngest sister the Hippie and have decided to try to blog for fun. Don't know if i will keep up with it. I read her blog and was struck by several of her entries and felt a deep kinship for her. Guess that is good as we are sisters after all. That isn't to say I agree with everything she says, but I understand where she is coming from.
For example, fear. What does one fear in life. She fears being alone. I fear being alone. But she has children. I don;t. If my life partner dies before me, I will be totally alone. Who will care what will happen to me? I'm just a reject nun. A lesbian who tried not to be for years and years until this wonderful woman walked into my life. I know folks don't understand my Tiger, but the Tiger is good for me and to me. Tiger understands rejection like noone else does. She also understands my fears, for the most part. She knows what I gave up for her. She also knows how afraid I was that my family would reject me if they found out about us. She is so perfect is so many ways.
I know alot about fear. I have lived in fear in so many ways it isn't funny. I try to be a good person, but I can't help being what I am. I have been this way all of my life. I have had crushes on school teachers (all females) and Lucelle Ball and Carol Burnett and other female actressess, never felt a thing for the men. I dated a guy in high school but never felt a thing for him except friendship. He wanted to marry me, but all I felt was how gross it was when he kissed me. I got to college, met a woman and fell in love...long story on that. But I found out why I was so different. I found out what I was. I tried not to be for years, but no matter what it chased me all of my life. I don't believe God will condemn me for what I am. He made me what I am. I have suffered for years over this. But in Death Valley I found peace about it. I heard the voice of God telling me he made me the way I am and that I was to care and protect the Tiger. So, here I am. I am the protectress of the Tiger. and the Tiger protects me. We are a great team. Its been over ten years and I love her so much. Some don't understaned her. That's their problem. I understand her. I love her. I am lucky to have the Tiger in my life. My life is better for the Tiger.
