I’ve stayed awake so many night in my life crying because I didn’t understand why God made me gay. I felt like it just wasn’t fair to make me an abomination so I tried to fight it and I was so genuinely unhappy. Then I finally took the time to get to know who I was and what that meant to me. That was when I realized that me being gay wasn’t the problem. The problem was me allowing people to tell me that there was a mistake in the way I was made and that I was wrong for who I loved. Now, I am a ❤️Happy🧡Strong💛 Black💚 Gay💙 King💜. I deserved to be loved and respected and so does everyone else. I hope to live as an example for anyone who struggles with loving themselves. When you truly begin to love yourself, you find that piece, and the peace you were looking for. So, here’s to a #PeacefulPride to all ❤️🧡💛#ILoveYouGays 💚💙💜 . . . . .
