The Musings Of A Gay Man

By Zj

Entry 1

Musings: "A product of contemplation; a thought. "an elegant tapestry of quotations, musings, aphorisms, and autobiographical reflections" (James Atlas).

Hello fellow wordsmiths. Welcome to the first entry of what will be a random yet hopefully frequent collection of perspectives, reminiscing's & considerations, about my life past, present, future, the world and the things that matter to me in it.

I am seeking to make this miscellany as coherent, chronological, uniform and (if fortunate enough, as eluded to in the above quote) for it to be in possession of a little bit of elegance, but if it does come across at all disjointed then I'm sorry (I have after all only re-discovered writing very recently) and maybe you could direct any criticisms to me. I don't bite but instead relish self-awareness.

Although not exclusively, there will be times when I address issues of sexuality and while there may be occasional references of a graphic nature, this is in NO way an exercise in pornography. Rather more it is meant to stimulate mentally as opposed to physiologically. I hope this mitigates any resentment that may be felt.

So, with the housekeeping 'done-&-dusted', I will begin this "putting down in words" of life and hope it at least helps you to pass some time. Again, feel no fear in telling me what you think. It would be of equal benefit if you do & if so I hope you feel not too much of an urge to be overtly harsh but I am very thick skinned :)

Yours expectantly,

Z
