Prayer for Peace
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is discord, harmony; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; where there is sadness, joy. Grant that I may seek not so much to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.

Always makes me wonder I we are not "projecting" our ideas to these pics. In some of them you can clearly see something beyond friendly affection (not only the hand holding, but some the way knees or legs touch). But others could just be a friendly pic
You are quite right. It is indeed very tempting to project our notions of love and romance into these pics. Probably the greater number are just "buddy" pics or brothers, or clowning for the camera. Homosexuals in the pre-Stonewal era did NOT advertise the fact - it was a serious crime, a disgusting sin, and a mental illness - you never saw homos on TV or in movies or magazines. Nobody was "openly gay" - your family and friends would have shunned you, and you'd probably get fired from your job. Young people today don't remember the fear of being found out, or how much mental energy it took every day to hide the fact of your sexuality. I remember it well, however.
Still, these pictures offer a pleasant fantasy for our gay minds, as long as we don't mistake fantasy for historical reality. Appreciate your comment, Alex.
