"Hey, Andrew. I want you to keep this tape as long as possible. I think you might need to listen to this again in the future. It just… It just might make more sense to you when you're older. You're gonna have some tough days. Days where… You'll feel like everything sucks and you don't want to get out of bed. Days when you're gonna feel like you just don't belong… I've had a lot of those days. And I want you to know… You're not the only one who feels the way that you do. There's a whole world out there for someone like you. I promise you, you're not as different as you think you are. And, mom and dad, they might not get it. A lot of your friends might not get it either. And some of them might say some pretty mean and awful things… Because they just don't get it. But I get it. And I know that you're gonna learn to be happy. With who you are. And you may need to be in another place to be happy, and you know what? That's okay. That's why I left home. Might seem like the hardest thing to do at first… But it might be the right thing for you, too. And in another time, at another place, you're gonna meet the right people. People that are just like you… People that are just like me. So hang in there, Andrew. Things tend to get a little darker before they get brighter. I will always regret that I wasn't home enough these past few years. I feel like I'm only really getting to know you this time around… And I'm proud that you're my brother. I'll always be with you."
Happy Pride Month to my fellow LGBTQ+ folks out there!
