Gay Pride is a new and wonderful thing for me. I mean I've been "proud" ever since accepting being gay, but going to MiPride 2019 on Saturday put it in a whole new light. I feel it burning in my heart like a fire and I hope it never goes away.
When leaving MiPride I had to walk a mile to my car through a park in an unfamiliar city and it was later. The path went under bridges. I was wearing a rainbow colored bandana with paw prints on it that I bought there, and a rainbow flag stuck in my front pocket. Well I was a bit scared...aint got no gun aint got no knife and I aint no TNT. I was the only reveler heading back cuz I was leaving early and the park was emptyish. Everytime I passed a guy in a hoodie or with chains and tattoos I wondered if it would be my time to be attacked with how visibly gay I looked...but no matter how nervous I was, damned if I was taking it off! "Not today" I thought "today is MY one day to show my pride the fuck with what others think!" It was an amazing feeling. I also bought a rainbow colored peace sign bumper sticker for my car which is taking lots of courage as its a small town and most my family are very religious. My parents support me at least.
So this weekend I discovered what Gay Pride is...and its beautiful.
