Sing The Freethinkers

The First Unitarian Church Youth Choir performs this morning during service. I am so proud of my child, of all these beautiful little freethinkers of ours. They are strong, accepting, open-minded individuals, who are learning to do the right thing because it is the right thing to do. Not out of guilt or fear of eternal damnation. They have been raised knowing they are not damaged goods in need of absolution. They know that what we do today affects others today, and thats what is important...not some fairy tail promise (threat?) that no one could wrap their brain around if they were to be honest about it. I'm going the wrong way with this, all I wanted to say is this:
Al will sing at First U. this morning, and I will cry tears of joy for my sons beauty. Across town at a Baptist church my daughter will sit wondering why she feels the way she does, and all I can do is wait.
