text: FacebookTwitterGoogle+E-mail On a dark and stormy night in the dark cave of man's mind, Shaitaan once lit a campfire and settled down to tell a story- a myth, in fact. It went like this: Once upon a time Islam was revealed to a Prophet of near God-like perfection. He shared it with his friends, who were all superhumans lacking any embarrassing or inconvenient biological urges. They implemented it with inspirational dedication, passion, and flawlessness. Since then it has been passed down through the generations, and only a privileged few are able to embody the wisdom, piety, and errorless rejection of sin that its holiness demands. By Shaitaan, the End. Shaitaan is possibly millions of years old and pretty damned (literally!) sneaky. His goal, at the end of the day, is to get as many of us into hell with him as possible, and one of the ways that he does this is by using this myth of effortless, perfect implementation of Islam by effortless, perfect Muslims. The idea is simple. Shaitaan says: Do it all perfectly or just stop, because you're embarrassing yourself. In fact, a person like you has no chance of getting into Jannah. In fact, just kill yourself now. At least it will be over sooner. His message is so insidious that people all over the world actually give up trying to be better Muslims because they fall short of their own expectations for how effortless and impeccable their Islam should be. They try hard to implement Islam- they go through the motions even when their hearts aren't in it, and because they find themselves being pulled in two directions, they assume they're doing something hypocritical or wrong and they stop altogether. Shaitaan wants you to believe that there are naturally religious people, and then there's everybody else. And the reason why you are having a hard time isn't because spirituality is one of man's greatest struggles, it's because you aren't one of the beautiful people. So the sister who yearns for the wind in her hair gives up hijab because she feels like she's living a lie. The brother who has a beard shaves it because he feels he doesn't deserve one until he can quit marijuana. The convert won't pray until they're sure they've got all the words right. All of these are success stories for the myth of the Naturally Good Muslim. They are Muslims who, instead of realising that struggle was a sign of progress, saw difficulty as a sign of defeat. Some people do fall for it. Others- like imam Sufyaan ath-Thawri- saw through this cheap trick and insisted on praying at night for twenty years even though he wasn't "feeling it." Imagine if, one day he had just thrown his hands up and said "You know what? I'm not cut out for this, I've been praying for twenty years and I've yet to find this whole peace and contentment with my salah. What's the point? I'm never going to get it right…" Shaitaan is trying to convince you that because your Islam is less than perfect, you're a failure who should give up already. In reality, everyone is a sinner and the Jihad of the nafs is a constant struggle for everyone. The best people aren't those who sin, but those whose sins cause them to try even harder and draw even closer to Allah next time. For some people, major sins can be major set-backs. For others, they are life-changing events that mark the end of heedlessness and the beginning of seeking Allah's pleasure. Every Muslim is a combination of successes and failures when it comes to their religious practice. So as a sinner, you're in great company! Everyone, everywhere, accumulates sin on a daily basis, and if everyone like you took Shaitaan's advice and just killed themselves, we'd all be dead. O My servants, you sin by night and by day, and I forgive all sins, so seek forgiveness of Me and I shall forgive you. -Excerpt from Hadith Qudsi, full hadith here. Shaitaan wants you to think that the passing grade for this test is 100% and failure is everything else. But if you believe him, then you're buying into an insult to Allah. How? Allah is The Most Merciful, Most Forgiving- Most Loving, Most Gracious, Most Kind- He alone has attained perfection and as The All-Knowing, He knows how and what we're made of, so by what crazy logic would He mercilessly penalize us for not reaching a standard that He best knows that we can never attain? Shaitaan might add at this point: well, ok, Allah is The Best. But you can't think that you're getting into Jannah with *that* old sack of a soul. Have you seen the state of your nafs? Brother, it is bad. If you think you're too bad for Allah to forgive, then you're grossly underestimating Allah's capacity for forgiveness. You're implying that your teeny-tiny mortal capacity to sin is even greater than Allah's capacity to forgive. Please, don't insult God. They don't call Him Al-Ghaffar, The Continuously Forgiving, for nothing. On the authority of Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: Allah the Almighty said: O son of Adam, so long as you call upon Me and ask of Me, I shall forgive you for what you have done, and I shall not mind. O son of Adam, were your sins to reach the clouds of the sky and were you then to ask forgiveness of Me, I would forgive you. O son of Adam, were you to come to Me with sins nearly as great as the earth and were you then to face Me, ascribing no partner to Me, I would bring you forgiveness nearly as great at it. Related by at-Tirmidhi (also by Ahmad ibn Hanbal). Its chain of authorities is sound. Whenever I read that Hadith, it puts a certain picture in my head, and in my primitive photoshop imagination, it looks like this: Mountain of Sins= Mountain of Rewards for Repentance. Repentance for a mountain of sins is equal to a mountain of blessings. So, the greater the sin you've committed, the greater the reward for seeking forgiveness. Knowing that this is how Allah works helps us appreciate how truly generous Allah is in His forgiveness- instead of seeking forgiveness on a level -10 sin and only being returned to a clean slate with 0, we seek forgiveness on a level -10 and in response are given a +10 in its place. AllahuAkbar. Shaitaan wants you to forget that Allah is the Greatest- even in His capacity to forgive those who sincerely ask it. He wants you to think that you only have two choices; perfection or failure, and since perfection ain't gonna happen, what option does Shaitaan leave you? Killing yourself and getting it over with already. But, there's a third option that Shaitaan doesn't want you to remember: Between perfection and failure lies your only real choice: Fight. Fight shaitaan's insistence upon your failure, fight your own soul's inclination to sin, fight your own weaknesses and no matter how hard you've been hit or how long you've been laying on the ground- get up and keep fighting. Fight shaitaan as hard as he's fighting you, as long as he's fighting you, and don't stop fighting him until the Angel of Death draws your soul gently away from your body and into the safety of your grave, spacious and fragrant with the winds of Jannah, where you can finally relax a little, reassured and kept company by your good deeds until Allah raises you on Qiyama. Just because your heart is aching right now, and you're locked in the seemingly endless cycle of sin, regret, and self-reproach doesn't mean you're a lost cause. It's actually good news, and here's why. The human heart (or soul, or nafs) has three settings according to the Qur'an. The Lowest, Default Setting: Nafs al-Amarra bis Su' This cockatiel is obviously set on default. The lowest level is the Nafs al-Amarra bis Su' or the soul that is inclined to evil, and a majority of humankind lives in this guiltless, no-regrets, live for the moment mode. This seems to be the default setting for most pop music as well. And I do not free myself from blame. Indeed the human self is inclined to evil, except when my Lord bestows His Mercy (upon whom He wills). Indeed my Lord is Forgiving, Merciful." (Surah Yusuf: 53) Knowing that it's possible to have varying levels of soundness to one's heart/nafs- Muslims don't rely on the soundness of their heart to provide a compass to morality. It is not your heart's job to point you towards what's right, it only points you towards what it wants. So in a sense, you don't follow your heart as much as your heart follows you. Have you seen the one who takes as god his own desire? Then would you be responsible for him? Surah Al Furqan: 43 The Medium Setting: Nafs al-Lawwama "I do call to witness the Resurrection Day. And I do call to witness the self-reproaching Soul." Surah Al-Qiyamah: 1-2 This is a soul that battles with its desires, that commits sin and then reproaches itself and tries harder next time. It has awareness of its shortcomings, but despite its imperfections, it hasn't given up. Your guilt and self-reproach about the shortcomings in your Islamic practice are evidence of having made progress on your spiritual journey. The bad news is though, is that Shaitaan is trying to knock you down a notch so that instead of trying harder, you just stop trying altogether- whether because you've killed yourself, or because you've decided that you're a hypocrite and you've written yourself off as ever being a "good" Muslim. Alhamdulillah though, Allah has good news for the Reproaching Soul. "And hasten to forgiveness from your Lord and a garden as wide as the heavens and earth, prepared for the righteous- Who spend [in the cause of Allah ] during ease and hardship and who restrain anger and who pardon the people – and Allah loves the doers of good; And those who, when they commit an immorality or wrong themselves [by transgression], remember Allah and seek forgiveness for their sins – and who can forgive sins except Allah ? – and [who] do not persist in what they have done while they know." Qur'an 3:133-135 The very fact that you are aware of your shortcomings, even pained by them- is reassuring proof that you have a Nafs al-Lawwama. If you didn't care, didn't want to care, and didn't even want to hear about why you should try to give a care- well, that would be worse. Sure, you'd probably be happier and more "at peace with your self," as many modern proponents of self-worship would say, but you'd actually be wallowing in heedlessness. The Highest setting: Nafs al-Mutma'inna "O you satisfied soul. Return to your Lord pleased with yourself and pleasing to Him. Enter among My servants. And enter My paradise." (Surah Al-Fajr: 27-30) You might not be here yet, but that's ok. You can still strive to accomplish this. The Contented Soul, or the Satisfied Soul, is the highest setting for your heart. It is a place of happiness, peace, acceptance, and sweetness of faith. It takes hard work to get there, and Allah has good tidings for the Contented Soul but get this- not even the Contented Soul is a perfect soul. It's just a very happy one, and very close to Allah. I'd write more about it, but I've yet to get there myself. :) So, in a nutshell: No one is perfect except Allah, so don't hate yourself for being an imperfect Muslim. You're not the only one accumulating sin every day that you're alive, so don't let Shaitaan pick on you. The difference between a good Muslim and a bad Muslim is not that one sins and one doesn't- it's that one seeks forgiveness & tries harder, and one doesn't. Shaitaan's trying to trick you into thinking you're a failure so that you give up. Believing him is the only way to lose. Fighting him is the only way to win. There's one more thing that we need to remind you of: On no soul does Allah place a burden greater than it can bear. That means that whatever situation you're in -despite how hard it seem and how badly Shaitaan is trying to bring you down- you can overcome this. You can succeed. You can find a way- either out or through- that is pleasing to Allah and perhaps even terribly frustrating to Shaitaan. There is nothing coming that you can't handle, not because you're great, but because Allah is the Greatest. He knows what you're capable of, and He promised your challenges would never exceed your strengths. Allah sets us up for growth, not failure. And Allah never, ever breaks His promises. Shaitaan, on the other hand, has been lying to you. He's saying that anyone who's struggling with deen shouldn't even bother to try, whereas Allah gives double the normal reward to those who have difficulty reading Qu'ran. The Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him said "The magnitude of the reward goes along with the magnitude of the affliction." (Tirmidhi) The more you're afflicted now- whether it be with stress, illness, financial difficulties, emotional turmoil or self reproach- the more you will be rewarded when you succeed, and the fact that you're struggling right now isn't a sign that you should just give up and kill yourself, it's an invitation from Allah to come closer to Him. Will you accept?

I think you might have changed your mind on the wording at some point while editing and lost the meaning you intended. I think you mean that Shaitaan WANTS you to forget to fight. So, maybe you meant to write, But, there's a third option that Shaitaan doesn't want you to REMEMBER: Between perfection and failure lies your only real choice: Fight. or But, there's a third option that ALLAH doesn't want you to forget about it: Between perfection and failure lies your only real choice: Fight. or something along those lines.

My halaqa teacher used to always give the examples of Abu Sufyan and Umar (ra). Both of those men were at one point a staunch enemy to Allah, His Messenger and Islam. They even wanted to kill the Prophet as one point. And yet, Allah guided them out of their mercy. Alhamdulilah none of us are in that state where we want to harm the prophet And If Allah can guide people like Abu Sufyan and Umar who originally were haters of Islam, then there is hope for us too. And today we consider Umar and Abu Sufyan as the Companions of the Prophet. The underlying message here is to Never lose hope in the mercy of Allah Allah says that His Mercy is greater than His Wrath. 7 0 Reply The Perfumed Veil December 5, 2013 This article really helped me.

I feel like this often but have never actually realized that this was a trick of the shaitaan, or that this was even happening to me. For example, I would tell myself to commit to praying all the sunnah and nafil prayers everyday. However, when it would come time I would think "I didn't even feel the sweetness of the fardh prayers. I'm not even doing those right and I wanna add more?" Then I wouldn't. Or if I would set my alarm to pray tahajjud and would dread it going off at night I would think praying tahajjud wouldn't mean anything because I'm dreading doing it and I have to force myself to. So I would like to thank you for bringing this to my attention and having me realize that this is what is happening and that its fine to feel these feelings. And most importantly, to not have these feelings drive me away from doing any good deeds. The quote from Imam Sufyan ath-Thawri really hit home for me. 9 0 Reply Abez December 5, 2013 Wow- sister- your example was far better than the few I put in the article.

By catching shaytan he meant to be one step ahead and to be constantly aware of my own thoughts, emotions and in turn actions. By being in the constant present, always aware, we can catch the shaytan when he is trying to fool us.

Morgan Moses: I've Met With The Panthers Three Times
Potential Panthers pick, Virginia offensive tackle, Morgan Moses, spoke with Mac about the Panthers, the draft, blocking for Cam, some red flags, yoga and the draft process.
My Panther First Round Favorites
When your team is drafting 28th, it is a lot harder to zero in on one player and end up happy than it is if your team is picking top 10. So, I am trying not to obsess over one guy (although I have admitted to dreaming about Marqise Lee). Here are a few guys I would like to see in Blue and Black.

Scott Wright from DraftCountdown.com joins the Mac Attack to discuss the Panthers draft options in next month's NFL Draft, including several specific wide receiver options and offensive tackles.

Asus launches Atom-based notebook - not netbook
Asus has formally launched its N10... well, it's not a netbook despite being based on Intel's 1.6GHz Atom N270 processor, it's more a scaled down executive laptop. In addition to the Atom CPU, the N10 comes with 2GB of DDR 2 memory and full-scale GPU, an Nvidia GeForce 9300M GS with 256MB of dedicated video Ram. It also has a …
What's that I hear...?
"In addition to the Atom CPU, the N10 comes with 2GB of DDR 2 memory and full-scale GPU, an Nvidia GeForce 9300M GS with 256MB of dedicated video Ram. It also has a 160GB hard drive.
All these are essential, becuase this boy runs Windows Vista."
(El Reg readers in chorus:) "Heh. Not for long..."
my god,
how slow would this thing be running vista? i mean the atom is slower than a celeron!!
wi-fi device
It's not broadcom is it? anyone know?
10.2" screen
10.2" screen in 12.1" chassis. Ugh.
another nearly but not quite...
Ok now take this spec back down to a 10inch screen for £300 and I'll buy it...
Geeze how hard can it be... $$$ to spend still in my pocket...
BTW if it could push bluray to the HDMI I'd pay closer to £500...
Yawn yawn yawn
power consumption...
so thats about 6W for the atom and about 50W for the geforce - could this be the first net/notebook with battery life MEASURED IN SECONDS??
Rage Hard - Bend Sinister
Is the "rock solid - heart touching" slogan relatively new, or have I only just noticed it? It's a bit odd.
Re: Slowwww
Seconded. And with that Super Duper Power Engine, clocked at 800MHz? That will hardly run XP + AV + rest of the preinstalled crap. Think about Vista. Plus that will also need to switch off the Aero, so having graphics card like that is pointless.
That laptop's an awful stupid idea, IMHO!
It's also overweight
Just 190 grams away from my (OK expensive) VAIO SX series, but that has a processor that can seriously churn through medical 3D data sets, has a 13.3" screen, better resolution, etc. It can also switch off the power hungry Nvidia GPU, and let the integrated graphics chip handle the screen (you do have to reboot for that). I get 5.5 to 6 hours out of a charge if only writng stuff.
Even with the light weight of the VAIO, I am considering a SCC, but it must be 1.2 kg or less.
So, indeed what is the point?
bad marriage
It's like obese man marrying a woman with anorexia nervosa. Honey, u ain't eating that? ich okay i'll eat dat too, yumm yumm yumm.
Linux cause it's as skiny as you gonna get.
Re: Rage Hard - Bend Sinister
the "Rock solid - heart touching" tagline is on the boot splash screen of my original issue Eee 701. I seem to recall reading that the slogan was new when I pre-ordered my Eee in November/December last year.
can u run linux ...
hey - this vista consuming lots of config is becoming a nag. can u run a "real" desktop linux below the N10's config?! grow up, kids!
@can u run linux ...
"can u run a "real" desktop linux below the N10's config?!"
With no difficulty at all. In fact, the Eee Xandros build already has it, it just needs to be enabled with a very simple tweak, and is only not there by default to avoid scaring off the target market.
"grow up, kids!"
How foolish that makes you look, especially when you can run XP on these machines too - is that not a "real desktop" either?

Greater Adelaide, Adelaide North, Pooraka, Houses for Sale
The great Australian dream of owning a house is still alive with realestateview.com.au research showing that the vast majority of Australian's (66.9%) are looking to buy a house. These days however owning a standalone house in one's desired location is becoming increasingly difficult for many families as property values continue to rise in Australia.
Due to the rising cost of home ownership, buyers who are set on buying a house over renting may need to trade off location with size and space. Houses for sale in outer suburbs tend to be larger and have more generous outdoor living space vs. inner city alternatives.
To find the ideal house, don't rush into buying; take your time to look at the many houses for sale before making your final purchase decision.

Ground control calling Sen. Smith ...
Brandon Smith, a Kentucky state senator, radically expanded the reach of the climate change debate recently.
During a meeting of the legislature's Natural Resources and Environment Committee, the Republican lawmaker commented:
I think in academia we all agree that the temperature on Mars is exactly as it is here. Nobody will dispute that. Yet there are no coal mines on Mars. There's no factories on Mars that I'm aware of.
The staff at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration has a different view. NASA lists the average temperature on Earth as 57 degrees Fahrenheit, and the average temperature on Mars as 81 degrees below zero Fahrenheit.
In addition to not having any known functioning coal mines, Mars also is 49 million miles farther away from the sun than Earth, and its atmosphere is mostly carbon dioxide.
Otherwise, it's a pretty good comparison.
But Sen. Smith might consider this, as well. Not a single Martian legislator, scientist or academician has yet spoken out against the EPA's efforts to rein in climate change.
Not a single one.
Panel gives Lafayette officers career a shove
Would you push a man out of his wheelchair? While you were being recorded on video by a police camera? And while you, yourself, were wearing a badge?
In Lafayette, Lt. Tom Davidson did just that one day last October. He and other officers had been questioning a 25-year-old man who had been reported to have told people at a nearby charter school that he had a gun.
The man didn't have a gun, though he had a pocketknife. The officers warned him not to come back to the school, and the man began to drive away in his motorized wheelchair.
In the videotape, Davidson stands with his foot outstretched as the wheelchair approaches him and seems to make no move to get out of its way.
When the wheelchair rolls over the officer's foot, Davidson shoves the driver, toppling the wheelchair and sending the man tumbling into the street.
The man, who sustained facial injuries, was arrested and charged with felony assault on a police officer, though those charges were dropped five months later.
Last week, Police Chief Patrick Flannelly announced that he and the rest of the Lafayette Police Department command staff had recommended that Davidson be fired. Lafayette's mayor, Tony Roswarski, said he supported that course of action as well. But the department's civil service commission decided only to suspend the officer for 30 days and place him on probation for the next year.

Never Alone (Acoustic Version) Lyrics - BarlowGirl
Review The Song (1)
i waited for You today
but You didn't show
no no no
i needed You today
so where did You go?
You told me to call
said You'd be there
and though i haven't seen You
are You still there?
i cried out with no reply and
i can't feel You by my side
so i'll hold tight to what i know
You're here and i'm never alone.
and though i cannot see You
and i can't explain why
such a deep, deep reassurance
You've placed in my life, oohh,
We cannot separate
You're part of me
and though You're invisible
i'll trust the unseen

TK's "no-holds-barred, balls-to-the-wall" comedy has been said to be an infusion of Lenny Bruce meets Bill Hicks. His comedy can take an audience anywhere from dating to problems with racism. His quick delivery and timing has become his staple, along with his sharp writing. From working the road to his work on The Best Damn Sports Show Period and the reality show Face the Family his unique style is always prevalent. But no matter what he's doing or where he's performing, strap yourself in 'cause it's one hell of a ride. TK is a producer of the Rebels of Comedy.

The Community Spotlight 06/30/2011 (Starlet Included!)
By ZombiePie 22 Comments
Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the Community Spotlight! The updates continue at a steady pace just look at the new News Page. That's not the only good news as the second Big Live Live Show is all set for September 9th. The interns have been belting out the enjoyable video content with a new Kessler Kam and an anime edition of Dog Deep by Lemon. Sadly but true interns aren't to last forever. So with that please check out Intern Undeadpool's send off as his internship has ended. With all of that in mind please check out the latest edition of the Community Spotlight as presented by mracoon:
Community Starlet- Featuring Mento!
When bringing back the Community Starlet one of the things I wanted to do was highlight not just users who are well known for their community content but those that might fall under the radar. That's why this week's ComStar is awarded to Mento.
Those searching for insightful, humorous and atrociously-named discussion about videogames would be wise going through Mento's blogs. He covers a plethora of topics from a comparative look at Baldur's Gate II vs. Dragon Age II to what makes a good achievement and even a hideously-named retrospective on From Software. People ask where all the thoughtful and well written content is and it's right here.
Mento also has a thing for lists as he's created 19 of them. Some select choices are 'Fun With Anagrams', 'List of Wizards & The Things They Find F'd Up', 'Character's Better Suited for Tycho's Chair in "Poker Night at the Inventory"' and 'Acrostatic' reviews.
I haven't even got to the best part yet, wiki subs! Yes, Mento has earned over 6500 wiki points and they were mostly gained from two pages: War Wind and Birthright: The Gorgon's Alliance. Never heard of them? Me either but thanks to Mento we have more information that we'll ever need about these two classic PC titles. One other page to look out for is the, for once, brilliantly-named Jelly Boy whose titular character, from reading the page, doesn't sound like he's actually made out of jelly.

Interview with Karen from Logo's "Coming Out Stories"
AE: Right. You can't be responsible for how other people are going to act, but it sounds like it's been a great experience for you. Luckily you've had a good reaction. So you've been getting tons of mail?
K: My God, I get so much! I am shocked at how much. And I get scared, because some of these women, and some men, I'm getting e-mails from are 19, 20 years old. It's a very tough time, especially for coming out. And they are saying to me, "I'm not out. Help me. What do I do here?†They're reaching out to me. So now I feel like, because I put it out there I now have these young people, this crowd looking up to me and reaching out to me to set the example. And I don't have the resources or the tools to guide and help these people. So what I did was put a link right on the front page of my website to the Human Rights Campaign. They are huge on coming out. Huge.
So, I can't help them, but I can just tell them to be strong and really let them know that they are not alone and there are people out there that will help them. I will certainly talk to them about my experience, and a lot of people are asking me for copies of the show because they want to play it for their parents before coming out to them. It is so unbelievable how many people are now coming out since they saw my show that I'm shocked.
At the time it was about me and my mom, and the cameras gave me that push to do it and I'm so glad, I'm so grateful. I owe them everything. But no, I had no idea. It's overwhelming.
AE: Yeah, I can imagine.
K: I'm happy. I'm so happy that people can look at it as an example and say, "Look at that woman who is sick and she loves her daughter so much and it didn't even shock her as far as getting upset or anything.†My mom cried before I told her, because I gave her a card that talked about our relationship between a mother and daughter. And she literally broke down into hysterics over this card, and I hadn't even told her. I was about to tell her, but I hadn't even told her yet! It was like, Oh my God, Mom. Why are you crying? She thought I had something horrifying I was going to tell her, but I was like, no. And it's so emotional and I had no idea about the impact. But now I feel like I have a responsibility. I really do. And I'm happy to do it. Thrilled.
So I guess the only other thing that I would like to do with the exposure from the show would be to be on The L Word. [Laughs] I just want to make a cameo, that's all I want to do. If they seat me in the bar, off to the side, I'm happy.
AE: So, what next? You're studying marketing, right?
K: Yeah. I just have one paper to go and I'll graduate. I already do freelance marketing now. That's my job. So I get to make my own schedule and still be able to take care of my son and take care of my mom and help out in that way. So I really tried my best to get a schedule that would fit so everybody could get the time that they need.
AE: So that's a career that you plan to stick with, you're going to continue with that?
K: Yeah, I'm going to continue with that absolutely. I definitely would like to start helping out wherever I'm needed as far as coming out and any type of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender issues that are going on. I would definitely offer myself in as many ways as possible to help out. Definitely. Not because I feel responsible but because I want to. I definitely want to. It's such a good thing that happens.
AE: You said you were contacting schools to go there and speak. Has anything come of that yet?
K: No, I've just spoken locally. I've been invited to some of the clubs locally, which has been great. There were two clubs that the cameras went to. One is called Bounce and the other is Sisters. And it's unbelievable. The other night at Sisters this woman came walking up to me and she was shaking. I could see her hands shaking and she was in tears. She kind of like reached out an arm that was trembling and grabbed my arm and I just walked over and put my arms around her. I didn't know what her situation was, and so I hugged her and she just said, "Thank you.†Then she turned around and she walked away. And I heard that the crew that saw the whole thing before they put it on Logo, they were crying. One was absolutely a basket case, with tissues, and that person is gay too, so they could relate.
AE: Thank you so much, Karen. It's great what you're doing and I'm glad we can give you a little more of an audience.
K: Thank you. I'm so glad and I hope your readers enjoy it.
Karen's episode of Coming Out Stories will re-air on Logo on November 7th and 13th. For more information, visit logoonline.com, or Karen's personal website at karenscomingout.com.
