Welcome

Greetings Everyone!!!
I am starting this blog as a place for Gay men and women to come and read information about a variety of topics and issues. If you would like to be a guest author on my blog, please email me at CarlDinsmore@yahoo.com and tell me why you would like to post something on my blog. This is also a way for people in Cincinnati to get linked to social organizations that maybe they did not know existed. I will work hard on placing all sorts of information on the site, regarding Books, Medical updates, Causes that I deelpy care about, Gay vacation destinations, Gay Sports, and much, much more. Its also just a venue for you to share comments on postings, or share with me a cause or topic I could add to my site.
Last year was a very tough year for me, as I was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, which is a form of depression mainly diagnosed in women, but more and more men are being diagnosed with this illness. So, look for information regarding borderline on the blog. Finally having a diagnosis regarding my depression was life saving. Coming through that crisis is what gave me the idea to create this blog.
But my number one goal for this site is the fact that it is time for unity in the gay community. Its time to STOP tearing each other down, but rather to build each other up. We are not all alike. We are different and these differences are what makes our world such a wonderful place to live. Please enjoy the site, and lets unite to make our world the best place it can be.

My favortie gay related qoute EVER!!!!

If God had wanted me otherwise, He would have created me otherwise.

Latest Poem...

Living Life Out Loud……



Self discovery is all but impossible when one is blind.
Finding your way is not easy when your world is deaf.
Feeling incomplete abounds knowing you can not touch love.
Emptiness echoes aloud as you scream to taste a special kiss.

To identify the smallest part of your intellect is being successful.
Only with it can you have an opportunity to reach your goals.
Sensory input is needed to completely understand a person’s character.
This is most true when you are seeking passage on a voyage to find yourself.

Stumbling so many times searching, you begin to lose all sense of balance.
What, if anything, is the cure all for a life that has seemed so meaningless?
Is anyone ever standing on the mountain top looking down at completion?
Understanding that even in death possibly, that no one reaches a sense of closure.

Possibly what we seek lies in future lives and there only can we achieve identity.
Could it be that until we find true love we are destined to wander through time?
The key on life’s map is trapped because the directions are constantly changing.
Maybe our vast amounts of imperfections are the just cause we never stop seeking.

Depression could be a direct connection making those who are able to understand.
To understand that it takes an insane amount of lifetimes to live is itself sanity.
Not knowing that things are missing from your life is a preface to your next life.
Live your life aloud, speak freely about your feelings and know nobody is perfect.

My question is: Would you be attracted to yourself?

You say you wish people would get beyond physical appearance, etc....but are you beyond it?

Are you open to dating someone that may not be beautiful and/or thin by society's standards?

WOW, that is a tough question. I do not think I would right off, and that is part of the problem. It would be completely a physical delima, but once I got to know myself and saw the inside I would be. I am attracted to such a wide spectrum of guys. But, I am way hard on myself.

So then do you give every guy you meet a chance to know the "inside" of them even if you are not attracted to them physically?

I'm just wondering if you hold yourself to the same standard as you want others to.

You want others to get to know you and hopefully see the "inside" of you, but do you do the same? Or do you just dismiss them if they aren't your type or into sports or show interest in you immediately.

No, I am only hard on myself. Thats what is so difficult, because I hold myself to a higher standard, for some odd reason, than I do others. My close friends are always telling me that I am way too hard on myself. Thats part of borderline personality disorder. As far as the sports intersest, I just think it is crucial to have a main similar interest. They do not have to be the same sports, for example, but a love of sports is important, because they are a huge part of my life.
