“And I truly believe that my sexuality is a part of my path. It is not an unfortunate detail to be overlooked, it is not an unhealthy desire or a crude lust to be repressed and reprimanded, it is an expression of love and a simple fact. I am no stranger to the sting of rejection as a result of my queerness, but such pain has given me courage, the bravery to be soft and gentle and loving in a world that wishes to stop my love and to silence my words. This is the beginning of acceptance, this is the start of hope.”
