Thank you,

For loving us, and standing and suffering with us. The advances we've made we couldn't have achieved without the courage and endless encouragement of straight people. I've just started coming out to family and friends, and the overwhelming support I've gotten has been mind blowing. My fight has been one of identity, my right to exist as myself. I am winning that fight because of you, because you who have gone before me. You are my support and my shield, and I love you.
