After last years great experience at Toronto Pride 2008 I was looking forward to this June all year. However, due to financial limitations - House, cat, braces, gas...Living - I really couldn't afford a weekend in the big city. This year would have been especially poignant because I would have had the opportunity to show Brian what Pride is all about. Not to mention it would have been my turn to walk down Church St. holding my boyfriend's hand...
There is nothing more verifying than looking around at thousands upon thousands of gays & lesbians just being themselves. It made me feel so good to realize that I wasn't the only one. Yes, yes - I know that I have my friends and the people I've met here in Kingston as proof that being gay and out is okay and natural. But nothing compares to being one in a million!
Next time, we'll go, Bri! I promise! :)
