I can attribute most of these discoveries to self-reflection and my new daily AM/PM yoga practice, but additionally, if it were not for the incredible people in my life, I would be nothing but entirely lost.

In the past few months…

I have learned more about who I am.

I have gotten better at deep, forward bends.

I can breathe deeper.

I can love more.

I know my desires, needs, and wants more than ever.

I am more comfortable with myself.

I do more sun salutations.

I treat people better.

I know that despite stereotypical hate, religious misreading, and media- my family will love me for whomever I am.

I know being gay is OK!!!

I know Maine is ready for gay marriage.

I know the best moments in life are spent with those you love.

I know I can control my own suffering and pain.

I know I can conquer anything.

I know I want nothing more than to help anyone in need.

I know I’m in need too.

And I know, it gets better.

Thanks, world ....
