Por James Morris
\nJunio de 2005<\/p>\n

He tenido m\u00e1s de mi parte de Calistoga en esta vida. Esa humilde bebida de agua carbonatada sabe un poco m\u00e1s emocionante cuando le pides al camarero que le ponga una lima, pero all\u00e1 por los 80, cuando decid\u00ed sumergirme de lleno en la escena gay, hab\u00eda pocas opciones m\u00e1s. Es decir, si estuviera evitando el alcohol y el az\u00facar. Y para conocer a hombres homosexuales parec\u00eda haber pocos otros lugares adem\u00e1s de los bares. Bares: oscuros, llenos de humo, ruidosos, abarrotados y, a veces, llenos de borrachos que no son ni la mitad de entretenidos de lo que pensaban. Bien, no es mi ubicaci\u00f3n ideal para encontrar al Sr. Perfecto. Pero, mientras tomaba un sorbo de mi agua con gas, tuve mucho tiempo para pensar qu\u00e9 valores de mi pasado morm\u00f3n mantendr\u00eda empacados para mi nuevo viaje y cu\u00e1les eran un equipaje innecesario.<\/p>\n

Para m\u00ed, aferrarme a los ideales expresados en la Palabra de Sabidur\u00eda nunca fue realmente cuestionado. No ve\u00eda ninguna raz\u00f3n para adoptar adicciones y h\u00e1bitos que me resultaban desagradables, potencialmente costosos y perjudiciales para mi salud. Me gust\u00f3 la sencillez de la misma. Es f\u00e1cil saber qu\u00e9 cosas est\u00e1s introduciendo en tu cuerpo, no tan simple saber si est\u00e1s siendo justo y honesto con tus semejantes. Una cosa es controlar lo que consume y otra controlar su temperamento. Y tambi\u00e9n sabiendo que no ten\u00eda poder sobre mi composici\u00f3n cromos\u00f3mica, era reconfortante saber que al menos podr\u00eda evitar ciertas dolencias o incluso graves consecuencias para la salud con la dieta adecuada. Un t\u00edo (que yo conoc\u00eda) hab\u00eda sucumbido al alcoholismo y los diab\u00e9ticos eran parte del perfil familiar.<\/p>\n

S\u00e9 de ni\u00f1o que de alguna manera la naturaleza misma de ciertas cosas se interpret\u00f3 como malvada, como si el solo hecho de estar cerca de ellas pudiera significar una perdici\u00f3n inminente. Estoy seguro de que me advirtieron que evitara a todas las personas que violaran el c\u00f3digo de salud que consideramos sagrado. Pero ahora estas personas ya no eran extra\u00f1os temibles sino amigos. Muchos conoc\u00ed que eran buenas personas. Y era importante para m\u00ed subrayar ahora lo positivo en lugar de lo negativo. No se trataba de insistir en los males de las drogas, el tabaco, el alcohol, el caf\u00e9 y el t\u00e9, o preocuparse por la cantidad de cafe\u00edna en el chocolate; se trataba de comer y beber cosas que me nutrir\u00edan. Se trataba de hacerlo con \u201cprudencia y acci\u00f3n de gracias\u201d. Se trataba de celebrar mi f\u00edsico y las cosas que lo sustentan. Y si tengo salud en mi ombligo y m\u00e9dula en mis huesos y \u201cel \u00e1ngel destructor pasar\u00e1\u201d sobre m\u00ed, tanto mejor.<\/p>\n

As\u00ed que, aunque es posible que ya no pase el rato en bares bebiendo agua mineral en estos d\u00edas, me alegro de que haya fragmentos de mi herencia mormona que han tenido un significado continuo en mi vida. Me alegro de que la Palabra de Sabidur\u00eda sea algo en lo que todav\u00eda puedo creer.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
