When this picture was taken I was 17 and I was terrified of what would happen if people found out I was gay. What would my parents do? Would my church kick me out? Everything I knew, I believed...would be gone. I thought no one would love me. I was afraid I would die of AIDS alone somewhere, forgotten and outcast. So I kept my secret. The alternative was too much to bear. When I finally found the strength to come out two years later at 19 in a small town in the northwest, it was definitely a struggle. The family dynamic had to shift, friendships were tested, and I had to start deciding who and what I was about. I forged new friendships, I got out of my comfort zone, I even joined a gay youth group in Spokane, Washington and for the first time in my life I was around people like me. I felt alive, I felt seen, and finally...I saw a future for myself. One where someday I could be an artist, and sing and act and be myself, and maybe even one day meet a nice guy and get married and have kids. Life is not easy. For anyone. No matter what you may think. Everyone struggles. Everyone hurts. And we all need each other to get through this life. Happy #nationalcomingoutday. ❤️
