That was just.... 1) What is WRONG with people??? Why are they so afraid of gay people?? WHY? I just don't get it. 2) An empty round in the chamber. Those people who believe in God and who shunned this guy would no doubt try to find another explanation for that, eh? 3) everything that sucks today makes you stronger tomorrow.
thanks for posting this, love. got me all choked up, and reminded me that it's a fight that will have to be fought for a long long time, there is so much hate and ignorance still, in this world.
Thank you so much for sharing that video. I have tears in my eyes - that man is so candid, sweet, and strong. Easily one of the best "it gets better" videos I've seen
Thank you for sharing this. It's really touching and I'm really happy for the guy.
It's boggles my mind to see that some people will reject you so bad for being who you are. I don't get it. It doesn't make sense. And yet, it happens.
Although, I hope that he's right. I've always had doubts about "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger." I'm not sure it only makes you stronger. I've gone through tough shit and I'm fucking proud I survived. But I don't know if I'm perfectly sane. I have ptsd, I can't trust people fully, I always prepare for the worst to avoid disappointment. I don't know. I hope he's right.

I'm just happy that I had awesome friends and that my school was so accepting of these things. TT^TT I'm crying and I'm already out of tissues!
