As I reach for that tuning point of aged, and look around at those following me in the path I have chosen, I smile with joy and sadness.
I see my oldest children accepting my life style (which I hid for much of their lives) and notice that my “gothness” was never in the exterior, although in my youth, clung to the dark and the music, it was ....ME! My views, philosophies, have all come round in them, and they never even realized it.
There is something eternal about this lifestyle that I live, and it has kept me young as though I were fed by the fountain of youth and time has stood still for me, as I hope it will my offspring.
My sadness comes from experiencing those whose minds have decayed with this world and its narrow mindedness and preconception of who and what I am, but they haven't got a clue and if they only knew what the real secret to eternal youth was, and that it resided within themselves, they would still not be able to accept it for they are too blinded b the light.
I am indeed fortunate to have rediscovered that person I was so long ago; this world was not able to "illuminate" me, and resurrect him into that which I call myself. I am proud of my kids who accept ridicule and taunts from those who are “enlightened”, and smile, as I, at them for they know and understand.

This is wonderful that you have something you and your child can bond over. You two can share your feelings and beliefs more freely with one another than most families can. Frankly my parents disagree with many of my views and they think "Goth" is evil. They refuse to listen to the fact that "goth" is not just the clothing, and not all goths are "evil" as they see it. Enjoy the ability to talk with your offspring, it will make both you and them happy.
