"May I have a turn? I come here every week, and I always want to talk, to say something, you know, but... my mouth won't open...? I don't even know what's wrong, exactly, it's just that... something doesn't feel right." How many times did I listen to those words in the show this year, say them? When will I do myself justice? When will I figure out what it is I truly want, what it is I truly have the strongest passion for or a valid problem with, what takes priority over what, which instincts to follow and which to ignore? When does the eureka moment ...

You've got to wonder about those who are irrationally outspoken against homosexuality. If one is truly at peace and comfortable with his own beliefs and sexuality, then why pick a public platform to voice such combative passion? It makes me wonder what the "real" fight is all about.

My Grandad's a vicar, I attended a church school but still I've never really been drawn to religion. I've always struggled to understand how it answered any questions or made sense to anyone; to me it always posed more questions than it ever answered, overtime I have come to realise this is mainly down to the way I think. I have the perfect definition of an engineer's brain, thus I cannot just except that something exists or works just because it does, I need to be able to see how it works to understand and accept it.
