Happy National Coming Out Day!

I haven't been on here in a long time because of a lot of changes in my life. BUT, I thought this would be a good opportunity to wish the community a happy coming out day for those that have and I hope this can be uplifting to those who have not. I married my wife about a month ago, and she struggled with coming out because she is a minister. However, she is probably the bravest person I know and finally let everyone know our love and commitment to each other. We met in college over 10 years ago and reconnected via FB of all things last year. She is a minister with the UCC church so it could be worse, but it is never easy for anyone because of family, friends, etc. I wish everyone love and bravery and acceptance.
