Even with our perceived differences - we are
often very much alike.
With the death of the Rutgers' student recently,
there has been a surge of messages for those
children who are LGBT and are struggling due
to teasing, intolerance, and tormenting of others.
Interestingly, Lance Bass said that when he was
younger, he even played the role of a tormentor
which gives some credence to the idea that there
is a possibility that those who mock something
or someone likely have something going on
personally in regard to an issue. Look at those
conservative politicians who say one thing, and
then get caught in less than conservative
compromising positions.
If people could feel more like they could be
themselves, there would be little (if any) reason
for things like this...in regard to LGBT issues,
or anything else - in regard to children, or even
adults.
When someone is in pain, it is difficult to see
the forest for the trees, but hopefully those
who stand up and tell their stories will help
those who are in the dark see a glimmer of light.
We all have something to offer, but all too often
it gets hidden behind things that really don't
matter all that much.
