I went to donate blood

 It was late in 1998, I managed a sales team in Newport Beach, in sales and advertising of luxury boats and yachts. I took the afternoon off work to donate blood at the Red Cross.

Half way through my nerve racked donation, the queen asked "So are you gay"? I Thought "oh lord he's gonna hit on me" I replied "yes". Oh (hands on hip)" well I'm sorry but you can't give blood." I asked "why the hell not? I continued,  I'm perfectly healthy" He went on "have you had sex with a man any time between 1977 and now"? "Yes" I responded (with a bit of an attitude )however, I've been tested and with my partner for seven years". He responded "Sorry no can do".

I walked out of the Red Cross feeling very cross and insulted. What, because I was a gay person, my blood was expected to be a hazard. I was just healing from almost 10 years of my close friends being killed off from this monster AIDS and a nation suffered under the dark cloud of the AIDS epidemic.

Fast forward 2012.
For some strange impression I thought I'd listened to or watched a program informing me the FDA had dispelled of it's old rule and now was eager to obtain the additional blood from any good person, including gay men. Now I could help---I thought.

A hospital in Long Beach was in serious need of blood, to the point of offering $25.00 coupons for oil changes. ( I own a luxury car and didn't need their coupon) I moved things around and called to make sure I'd have everything I needed to help. I went in and sat down, only to learn after reading the "We cant take your blood if", if you had sex with another man in 1977-2012 you're not allowed to give your fabulous blood now.

 I walked out of Long Beach Memorial Hospital with the same queer feeling I had 14 years ago. And all I would have to say for them to accept my blood is "oh ya I am straight" and my gift of my awesome blood would be there to help another human being live. Maybe next year I can help?

Lifting off the pool of your soul.

My blog for Monday 4th of June 2012
Deep within your soul is a swirling pool of bubbles lifting upward toward your reality. Each bubble is a thought or vision you keep allowing to think over and over again.
To increase the quality of these rising bubbles take time everyday to be still and be aware of your breath. Each day you make time to meditate on your rising and falling breath you'll increase the good fortune on the emerging bubble and therefore will create more good vibrations in your everyday life and times
