I know how hard it can be to tell your parents when they are from a rigid Christian background that you are gay. I went through this back in the late 70's when being gay was not accepted at all within Christians circles and there where no gay friendly churches around.
We all want our parents approval and it is important to us and when we are something that they are totally against, makes it harder and more stressful for us to open up to them.
I really believe that our sexuality is none of our parents business. Do you have to tell them? Would it be easier for you to live you life as you want without them knowing? What would happen if you told them and how would this affect your relationship with them? These are just some questions to ponder on.
Either way, I am happy that you feel good about being gay. Don't ever let anyone put you down or discourage you or tell you that you are wrong, bad or whatever. They have no right to tell you what is right or wrong for you. You are the only person that has that right!
Take care and I wish you all the best............
