This past Sunday, I mentioned on here that today, October 11, is National Coming Out Day. Although that’s the name that began it, it’s now a worldwide day of awareness. Since I’m sewing until my fingers bleed for the entertainment of the masses, I hope you don’t mind if I link to previous posts on this subject for anyone who may have missed them.
I applaud everyone who’s had the courage to share the truth about themselves. I understand that coming out is ongoing and takes courage every time. I love my GLBT friends and the new perspectives and awareness they’ve brought to my life.
If someone who’s gay has made a positive difference in your life, why not blog a tribute to that person today, or simply a thank you?

I didn’t know there was a National Coming Out Day. Thanks for posting. I too admire the courage of all those brave enough to be true to themselves in the face of opposition.
CA has an initiative on the ballet that wants to define marriage as only being between man and woman. Do you guys have anything like that in Texas? It makes me so sad.
