I remember driving in my mother's green VW bug. Once in that magical car, I'd play 'punch buggy' with my sister as we'd see VWs everywhere. Given my history, I think it's normal for me to see GAY everywhere. Then I saw narcissism everywhere. When I was angry, I only saw anger or made others angry. The list goes on. I've come to realize that I'm the projector and so choose the lens through which to see my world. Now that I've found love again, thankfully I see love and kindness. I recently read a book entitled, "Loving What Is" by Byron Katie. The book taught me that my life, my stories, and my feelings are mostly projections of my own warped thinking. Now I'm learning to love reality rather than my perception of reality. My point honey is that if you're seeing gay everyone, it's because you're not ready to see anything else. I say embrace it because you still have work to do. If you want to get mad at the media for pushing gay relationships, have at it. You need to work through the anger and on the other side you'll see something else. I hope that helps in some way. Good luck.
