    Coming out is something you never stop doing. You start by telling your friends and family. Then you tell new acquaintances or coworkers who invite you out for a drink. Even the telemarketers who call and ask if my wife is home. You don’t have to tell everyone you meet, of course, but coming out is something that accompanies your entire life.

    I just wanted to say thank you. For everything. Taking me in, letting me go, showing me what love could be. I’m happy, and I wouldn’t be if it weren’t for you.

    Not by blood, or even by marriage, but family is more than that. You find people you love and keep them close to you. That’s what a family is.

    Like a cup of coffee or a hot shower, William’s smile was the perfect way to begin the day. Before school, Kelly would often open the front door to discover that smile waiting for him. Or if it was his turn to drive, he would cruise over to William’s house, park in the driveway and sit on the hood of the car, casually waiting for it to appear. And there it would be. That smile, lighting up the world and making Kelly’s insides buzz.

    Love is worth the pain, but I ate losing people. Maybe I’m crazy, but I’d rather be miserable with you than be miserable without you.

    Stupid people hate you for no reason. And stupid people here don’t want us to have fun. There’s no point in getting angry at people you can’t change. All it does is make you feel like crap. That’s exactly what they want. We can’t let them win.
