Having entered into a relationship with the Roman Catholic Church as a priest, while not 'owning my own truth' and keeping it a secret, I was feeling alone, fearing for my security and acceptance; I became co-dependent. Yearning for a significant other who would also be my soul mate-and realizing this would never be allowed as a Catholic priest-created my experience of loneliness as one of sorrow and pain. When I went into the priesthood, I checked my own truth at the door. Well locked up, I forgot myself. After having left the priesthood, I no longer feel lonely because I have changed my concept of God and began to own my own truth.
