Welcome! I am British and gay too - I guess that means we'll have to hate and ignore each other.
How was Pride in Brighton? It was my first time at one, in London, and it was great. I spent the day with some American lesbian ex-pats, celebrating the SCOTUS decision (I don't know what SCOTUS stands for but that's what everyone else is calling it so...)
I've never been to Brighton but my impression is it would be hard to tell the difference between a Pride weekend and a regular weekend.

"Faith is a state of openness or trust. To have faith is like when you trust yourself to the water. You don't grab hold of the water when you swim, because if you do you will become stiff and tight in the water, and sink. You have to relax, and the attitude of faith is the very opposite of clinging, and holding on. In other words, a person who is fanatic in matters of religion, and clings to certain ideas about the nature of God and the universe becomes a person who has no faith at all. Instead they are holding tight. But the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to truth, whatever it might turn out to be."
