Sister SeeMe FeelMe TouchMe

Grandmother secretly prayed a special rosary every night in hopes that her 24th grandchild would become a priest. Grandmother felt that specialness in her grandson from his very young age. Catholicism would shape Sister Seeme through her gay youth and into her adulthood. Finding and exploring a forbidden sexuality, and experiencing love would force Seeme on a journey toward an unconventional spirituality. Religion? Me...a Nun?? Same philosophy, more make-up. Moral judgments create a place of shame. I have found and need to share a greater level of self. We have the right to be honest, open and self-confident in both our sexual and emotional lives. We must celebrate our sexuality and spirituality immersing the two as one. A community of diversity? Diversity has allowed our community to grow and discover. We must celebrate that diversity of a community and of every individual shamelessly. Rejoice in the self that you learned to hide. Rejoice in the excitement of expressing your deepest desires. Through Sister Seeme I hope I have the ability to arouse an individual, arouse the inner strength and dignity of all individuals. Celebrating our lives is the greatest gift we can give! |
