Migs Speaks
Letter from a Silent Reader

hi migs,

i’ve been following your blog for sometime now, but this is my first time to write you. i just wanna say thank you, because your blog provides a much-needed outlet for a late-30-something guy like me who’s not out to his family or friends. and i guess i just wanted to say that i think you’re a good person, and a very intelligent one as well. your most recent entry about deciding to be happy is proof of these. and i totally agree with your perspective on the subject.

keep up the good work, and know that even if we don’t always make ourselves heard, we your silent readers continue to check out your blog and definitely never cease to be grateful. stay cool!

pete

  5. another laurel for you Migs…

  6. well, first time to read this blog sure have lots of nice things to read about..

  7. likewise. thanks migs.

  8. do you really have to follow the American norm of going “OUT”? I am 40, and I really feel no need to “out” myself.

    For one, i realized friends and immediate family kinda knew all along and there’s exactly no need for me to do it since they knew about it and they couldn’t care less.

    I think “Outing” yourself will make the world a much smaller place since you will only make yourself already branded or marginalized.

    For people who don’t matter to me ( lalo na sa mga chismoso at chismoso ) bahala kayo mag-isip. I better give you all a hard time!

    Real and sincere people, friends or just plain Janes and Johns you meet, will take you for what you really are.

    Lastly, even when i know i have a stronger preference for the same sex, i still look forward to sana meeting the right person na female ang gender who will love me for who i am and siyempre dapat mahal ko din.

    Eh if i shout to the whole world na “Haller, I am GAY!”, pano na yun?

    Hi, Pete, hello Bro, I truly understand what you’ve been going thru. Pareho tayo ng sitwasyon at halos edad. I really try to enjoy life as much as I could. There are factors that in our life that we really cannot be out, like me, dahil mahal ko ang family ko lalo na ang parents ko. There would be a negative effect on them if I go “out”. But still we can enjoy life and there many ways to do it and for sure our fellow readers would agree on that. It is just a matter of choice in life. But you can do it. I work as Int’l Tour Guide and  out of the country most of the time but visits Philippines every now and then.

    We can share throughts, that is if you just want - you can email me - solteroaqui@yahoo.com
