Choosing To Be Yourself
Everyone who is queer has that one moment that changed everything. It might not have been loud or dramatic. That's when you said, "I deserve more than fear, I deserve more than survival, I deserve to be myself."
For some, it was severing relationships with a toxic family; for others, it was purchasing an outfit that at last felt like you; or perhaps it was the first time you said, even in a quiet voice, "I'm queer, and that's not a mistake."
By choosing to be yourself, you are rebelling, healing, and breaking down barriers of shame that have been passed down from generation to generation.
We honour those times in this community, even if they are small, quiet, messy, or life-changing.
We would like to know about your experiences:
When did you first pick yourself over expectations, judgment, or fear?It could be a word, a story, or just a feeling.
Share it below.Your story could be just what someone else needs to hear today.
