I wonder sometimes. I think; “Why me? Why now?” I can’t very well answer myself. But I do go to the trouble of asking myself, about myself. And my whole, grown-ass self might respond by saying one simple thing: who cares.

I really wonder. As I certainly do not care, and thus why would it matter if any other does? Because I am but one person, I am my person. I am in charge of almost everything I do. I have been given responsibilities of reason and have been granted gifts from God.  I am the pilot of my craft, and I am the energy of my existence.

I really do wonder sometimes. Even after the day is done, amongst the ashes of a world I used to know, and besieged by weakness, I ask again; “Why me? And why now?”

For mine is the path of righteousness, I remain pertinent. And I knew it all along.

I’m Gay.
