It Doesn’t Just Get Better…We have to Make it Better

I watched this young man’s video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Ee-Wa...

I think his message would have been stronger if he’d actually used his name but he’s young and I think he, at least gets it, he understands: It doesn’t just get better, we have to make it better. How? By coming out. By standing up. By fighting back. By supporting those who come out. By believing: I am who I was meant to be. I am perfect as my Creator made me. My creator holds me safe and cherished in the palm of His hand.

I believe this—it’s what forms the basis of my life and what drives my writing—and I hope what our LGBTQ youth will come to believe.
