Author has written 59 stories for Love, Friendship, General, Life, Family, Fantasy, School, General, Romance, and Young Adult.

Name: Caitlin

Age: 18

Birthday: April 22

Location: Australia

Interests: Writing (check out my profile on Fanfiction.net http://www.fanfiction.net/u/317355/), psychology, swimming, social justice, etc.

I would really appreciate if you could check out this site, and post it on your own profile if you agree with it. www.miniature-earth.com

PLEASE READ WHAT'S UNDER THIS!!

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.
I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.
I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.
We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.
I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.
I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.
I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.
I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.
We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.
I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.
I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.
I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.
I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.
I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.
I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I did not have to always deal with society hating me.
I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.
I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.
I am the person who is afraid of telling his loving Christian parents he loves another male.

Quotes:

"You're a product of your environment no matter how you try and rebel against it." -Drew Barrymore

"When someone looks at you, and they're not judging you, it's the best you can feel in life." -Drew Barrymore

"If only. Those must be the two saddest words in the world." -Mercedes Lackey

Time passes in moments... moments which, rushing past define the path of a life just as surely as they lead towards its end. How rarely do we stop to examine that path, to see the reasons why all things happen, to consider whether the path we take in life is our own making or simply one into which we drift with eyes closed. But what if we could stop, pause to take stock of each precious moment before it passes? Might we then see the endless forks in the road that have shaped a life? And, seeing those choices, choose another path?

-The X-Files

Regret is an odd emotion because it comes only upon reflection. Regret lacks immediacy, and so its power seldom influences vents when it could do some good.

-William O’Rourke

Honesty is the cruellest game of all, because not only can you hurt someone – and hurt them to the bone- you can self righteous about it at the same time.

-Dave Von Ronk

And a poem...

They say the world is round,

Yet I often thinks it’s square,

So many little hurts we get

From corners here and there;

But there’s one truth in life I’ve found

While journeying East and West,

The only folks we really wound

Are those we love the best.

We flatter those we scarcely know,

We please the fleeting guest,

And deal full many a thoughtless blow

To those we love the best. -Anonymous
