Ideas please

Postby EndlessDestiny » Tue Nov 25, 2008 5:40 pm

Alright, I need some advice. My parents say I need to get rid of all the bags of books in my closet (the gay books that I've been hiding). I don't know what to do with them though. I can't let them be seen. Does anyone have anyone have any ideas?
For all those words of tongue and pen, the saddest are those: "It might have been."

Tara ended up next to Oz in the elevator. He looked at her, nodding to himself.
"What?" She asked.
"You look good. Kinda radiant."
Tara nodded. "I was resurrected a few days ago."
Oz arched an eyebrow. "That'll do it."

You could donate them to a library.

Put them on your bookshelf with fake covers?
I'll be everything that I want to be,
I am confidence in insecurity.
I am a voice yet waiting to be heard,
I'll shoot the shot, bang, that you hear 'round the world.

The most appropriate solution will be one that is in line with your personal context.

As mentioned in the posts above me, donating them to a library, finding a better hiding place or masking them on your bookshelf seem like pretty good ideas.

If there is good dialogue between one of your parents and yourself, try and find out the reason for which they wish to have your closet cleaned and ask them if they could offer you any ideas on where you could stock the things you have there. If you approach them by situating the problem from their point of view solely, there is a lesser risk of them interfering into finding out what you have hidden.

At a second level, if there is anyone in your family (cousins for example) with whom you could share this dilemma, brainstorm with them into finding where in the family home you could safely keep your books.

All the best,

Vi'
