    let me expalain pride

    Look, i am proud to be gay... You might ask why? Is it because i think it is cool that i am different? Nope... Is it because i want to start controversy? No... Is it because i want get special rights? No...

    The reason why i am proud and i celebrate is because i loved myself enouph to stop trying to change myself into something that i am not... I am proud because -a while ago- for one of the first times in my life, just thought about me and my own personal beliefs... I am proud because i know that God still loves all of his children for who they are... I am proud that i can still grow and prosper in a society that labels me and says i want special rights when i want is for people to leave me alone... I am proud to not judge how others live... And last I am proud that i have never hurt someone else for being different and peacful in their difference.
    That is why i am proud
