The fact is that most of us have been in the closet for most of our lives. The closet is simply a place where we store the clothes that we don’t wear for a time, where we hide from the world. It’s not a place where you wear your clothes to the next party, or the next event, or the next job, or the next town. The closet is a place that allows you to pretend you are someone else.
The problem is that the closet is one of the major areas of the brain that is responsible for making decisions. Even though we often hide away in our closets, we still have to make decisions. We need to wear what we have because it is the only thing that will make us look good.
One of the main uses for the closet is to reduce stress and make decisions. It’s also used to make you forget that you are hiding in your closet. The fact is though, that the closet is the biggest area in your brain where we store all the information we need to make decisions. So we know we’re hiding in our closets so we know we have to do something, and so we do it.
I was in a closet once before and I felt a bit weird, but it felt okay. I was wearing my clothes, and the clothes were hanging on me, like I was hanging a pair of shorts. The closet is a place in your brain where you know you are hiding but you can’t remember why you are. The closet is a place where you have to decide and there seems to be at least three different ways to do this.
To the closet or to the kitchen? To the closet or to the bathroom? To the closet or to the bedroom? Our choices are the closet or our own bedroom. No matter where we hide, we are still in the closet. And that is why the closet is the place where we have to live with our decision making.
The closet is a safe place for gay couples to discuss their sex lives. This is because we often don’t have a choice about where we hide our bodies. We are still in the closet even if we are doing it in the bathroom or in the kitchen.
We have to hide our bodies from the world. This is a scary place, but we have to keep ourselves alive. If our bodies are in a closet, we can become invisible. But there is no escape from our own reality. Just because we are closeted doesnt mean we have to hide from this reality. We have to look at it from within and see this as a place where we can make a difference.
I understand that hiding from the world can be a very challenging and awkward thing to do. To do it for long periods of time can be difficult. But there is a point where one has to say, hey, I am a part of this community and I am part of this community, and I am going to do this even if it is the most awkward, ugly, and shameful thing I can possibly do.
I can only speak for myself, but I think that the reason we do this work is because we feel we have to do it, and we feel in many ways that these people are worth the discomfort. We look at this like a chance to be something other than who we are, and to be something that not only we can make a difference in, but something we can be proud of. This work is not about hiding. It is not about hiding in shame.
So to do this work in any way, even if it is the most awkward, ugly, and shameful thing I can possibly do, I am doing it because I think I have to do it, and I feel in many ways that these people are worth the discomfort. Like we see it as a chance to be something other than who we are, and be something that not only we can make a difference in, but something we can be proud of. It is not about hiding.
