Do homo-'sexuals' exist? Does being gay really mean wanting to bone a person of your same gender? Is being heterosexual about wanting to bone someone of the opposite gender? Are we defined by our sexuality?

Christian de la Huerta in his book 'Coming Out Spiritually, the next step' talks about 10 archetypes that queer people have always embodied:

1 - Catalytic Transformers: A taste for revolution
Catalysts acting as agents of change, helping to bring about reform, inciting social movements, and supporting the advancement of humanity (eg. think of where the women's movement would be without the impetus of queer women)

2 - Outsiders: Mirroring Society
Helping society to more accurately perceive itself. Reflecting diversity and helping society determine its limitations and boundaries

3 - Consciousness Scouts: Going First and Taking Risks
Discovering new paths, searching out new answers, being 'consciousness scouts' - those who go first to see what lies ahead

4 - Sacred Clowns, and Eternal Youth: A Gay, Young Spirit
Embodying a spirit of humor and youthfulness, qualities that often bring entertainment, sustenance, and a refreshing sense of joy to the world. (eg. Camp is a form of humor that drag queens often utilize to temper otherwise scary or uncomfortable situations, and thereby help heal peoples fears)

5 - Keepers of Beauty: Reaching for the Sacred
Throughout history, queer people have been responsible for creating, promoting, and supporting much of the world's art and beauty, and have done so disproportionately to our numbers (designers, painters, hair stylists, etc.)

6 - Caregivers: Taking Care of Each Other
Healers, teachers and caregivers of all types - from physicians to massage therapists, from counselors to flight attendants, and in all forms of the service industry. (When the AIDS scare first happened a large amount of queer people went to the hospitals to help be caretakers)

7-Mediators: The In-between People
Serving as mediators or "go-betweens", particularly between the genders as well as between the physical and spiritual realms. Often match maker's of our straight friends and family / mid wives of birth / mid wives of death helping people come to terms with their passing

8-Shamans & Priests: Sacred Functionaries
Throughout history, and across many cultures, queer people often have assumed roles of spiritual leadership, and have been honored, respected, and revered for doing so. In many tribes considered 'double visioned' being able to more easily perceive and see life through the eyes of the of the men, and through that women.

9-The Divine Androgyne: An Evolutionary Role?
The sacred writings of several spiritual traditions includes references to the concept of a 'holy androgyny" - the marriage within each person of both female and male aspects of the psyche, which could have evolutionary significance. Isophyls strive for balance (eg. twin serpents of the Kundalini, the wholly trinity, yin yang, 6 point star etc.)

10-Gate Keepers: Guardians of the Gates
According to some traditions, queer people have a vibrational level that is uniquely suited for the role of "gatekeepers" or "guardians of the gateways, with the spirit world."

From 'Coming Out Spiritually, the next step' by Christian de la Huerta

Now do you still think a person is gay because of where they want to stick it? To me wanting to share our sexuality with the ones we love is what we have in common with 'straight' people, not the difference.

-Know thy self!

-Follow your inspiration, those little rushes of ah ha, that tingle up your spine when your eyes light up when you've heard truth - this is how to know your purpose, and learning to follow these inspirations will help you develop your intuition

-Divinity is at the core of your being, of your self and all beings

-In all the worlds cultures and animal species in our vast family tree, there are things common to ALL. Look closely at these universal truths.

-Stoke the fires of the temple of your soul with Inspiration, Knowledge & Highly mineralized live organic nutrients

-Living foods = Living bodies / Dead food = Dead bodies

-Alkalize & Survive! All Cancers, funguses (Candida) and most other Dis-eases can not exist in an alkaline body; Eat alkalizing mineral rich foods that have their life force intact.

-True health is found by assisting your ancient and very wise internal doctor to bring balance back into your internal environment.

-You can't expect to add drugs (poisons) to an ill individual and expect to get health. Adding toxins, medications, radiation and other poisons adds to the imballance of your internal conditions (homeostasis) & this never creates health, even if the drugs manage to mask the symptoms. You are Biotic - Antibiotics are poison! & Why would anyone think they could make someone healthy by exposing them to radiation? If you saw an ill puppy, would it seem healing to you to stick it in a microwave?

"The heart of creativity is an experience of the mystical
union; the heart of the mystical union is an experience of
creativity." Julia Cameron

"Getting ahead in a difficult profession requires avid faith in yourself. That is why some people with mediocre talent, but with great inner drive, go much further than people with vastly superior talent."
-- Sophia Loren

"The farther behind I leave the past, the closer I am to forging my own character."
-- Isabelle Eberhardt

"Art is a partnership not only between those who are
living but between those who are dead and those who are yet to
be born." (Edmund Burke)

"Good teaching is one-fourth preparation and three-fourths theater."
Gail Godwin

"A true teacher does not explain--he invites you to stand beside him and see for yourself."
Raymond Inmon

"Motivation is a fire from within. If someone else tries to light that fire under you, chances are it will burn very briefly."
Stephen R. Covey

"Correction does much, but encouragement does more."
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

"The function of art is to renew our perception. What we are familiar with we cease to see. The artist shakes up the familiar scene, and, as if by magic, we see it anew." (Anais Nin)

"The things we fear most in organizations--fluctuations,
disturbances, imbalances--are the primary sources of creativity."
Margaret J. Wheatley

+++"I would rather choose the painting of a monkey over anything generated electronically, because I am more fascinated by the direct evidence of a mind at work than I am by the output of machines."
Gary Glenn

+++"With the most primitive means the artist creates something which the most ingenious and efficient technology will never be able to make."
Kasimir Malevich

"It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare; it is
because we do not dare that they are difficult."
Seneca

"When you are feeling fear of some project or idea or dream, ask
yourself, What am I still curious enough about to override my fear?
Follow your curiosity like a delicious scent leading you to a kitchen.
Let your curiosity peel back the dry, bitter skin of drudgery to find
the sweet fruit of fun at the core. Focus on what you love rather than
fixating on the feelings of discomfort that sometimes accompany desire."
Carol Lloyd, "Creating a Life Worth Living"

"Procrastination and worry are the twin thieves that will try to rob you
of your brilliance -- but even the smallest action will drive them from
your camp."
Gil Atkinson

"Individuality of expression is the beginning and end of all
art." (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe)
