Be Free
Have you ever looked up at the sky and felt like time stopped and as the world kept spinning you stood still? Today as I hit up Pride, I laid in the grass feeling the warm sun on my skin, looking to the sky and making shapes with the clouds and taking deep breathes having the world come in slowly. This was a mental pinch to myself saying yes, I’m alive, I am me and I am free.
I am thankful for the wonder of the world and for the fact that when I wanted to venture away from home to find my niche, to find myself that I had enough guts to pack up and go. In life we are given so many opportunities, so many chances to face our fears, our dreams and to find our reality of ourselves. Yes, I was scared, nervous and unsure but like any great adventure or life moving moment, it will be... for it is the unknown and that is beautiful... getting to start clean or start something, having the knowledge that we can do anything as long as we believe in ourselves. I loved where I grew up, it helped mold me into me but there were things that held me back and being here in ATL (a little more gay friendly) I had the chance to go out and find my fun fabulous-self, to try new things and to be openly happy about who I am and what I want. I can honestly say that I am molding into the person my cat and I myself am proud to be.
So, I challenge you to look around, to get lost in the clouds, to find what makes you happy and go after it.
