today is my one year coming out anniversary. five years of soul searching and dealing with self stigma, fear, anger, and utter terror came to an end when the people i loved most in this world looked at me and said this doesnt change anything, we love you no matter what. I couldnt have been luckier to be loved by these people, and for my identity to be taken with such open arms. one day, there wont be a need for anyone to have to come out. our kids will come home from school and say i think im in love, and that will be enough for us. the last thing we will ask is who they love. sometimes, being gay feels like a burden to carry, not for me, but for the people that I love that will always have to live with what my identity brings, but i am honoured to wear the badge and carry myself with pride, for me, for the ones i am proud to love, and for the hope that one day, everyone will have it as good as i have. were on our way up. heres to the first year of a lifetime of love.
