Even though I knew who I was and knew I was free to love who I wanted, I still didn't take the step to say it openly. Even though I felt free, I still had invisible chains on my identity. I was imprisoning myself!
I always believed you had to be strong to protect what or who you love the most. But it took me 20 years to understand how to love and care. It is not through self-strength, desire, or will but through honesty.
To be honest is to become strong and unstoppable, but more importantly, to be honest, is to become free.
