I am keeping this, because I think it will be helpful in the long run. Perhaps if not for me, then for someone else who can find some strength in knowing that they are not alone. Despite how alone they may feel. I know that I feel that way. That I do not always know what to say, do or even how to react. I find myself at my wit’s end and can no longer bear the stress. I AM GAY. and I have no problem saying that. Sometimes I almost want to shout it from the mountains tops in some rebellious rage. But against who am I really rebelling? I do not care what society perceives me to be, because that is not the truth. I do not care how I am labeled, because it only matters as to which label I reply. I do however care about my family. I do care about the fact that I am rejected, because of my orientation. So this is the start. There will be more to come. But I needed something clean, new, and most importantly, anonymous.
