    I just joined a few days ago and I am so happy I did. For most of my life I thought that being gay was a curse. I recently realized it was not a curse, but a gift. A wonderful gift. Coming out is not going to be easy. But accepting who I am, I could feel the shackles and chains of anxiety and guilt crash to the floor. For the first time, I could look myself in the mirror and say, "I love being gay!" People here are giving me the courage i need to come totally out. Thank you so much!
