well done! your voice adds to our chorus telling these kids it gets better. More compassionate.....yes, we have that door open to us should we take our lesson in that direction. Thank you
Very good video! Don't give up kids everything gets better. Their are millions of Gay, lesbians and straight people that have your back. We support all of you!
Inspiring, and inspired by a life well lived. Thank you so much for sharing- I've been hearing the news from home from half a world away, and it's been such a relief that so many people are being proactive about producing change. I also can't help but note how sad it is that the "it isn't a choice" facet has to be brought up- I surely agree with you, but it's quite the example of how closed-minded so much of our society is. It shouldn't matter whether it is a choice or not.
This is a wonderful thing you did. Thank you for posting this and trying to help other people understand what you went through. I am sure you have helped and will help many people. Thank you for putting this out here.
Love your video! Thanks for sharing your story. I laughed out loud for like fifteen minutes when you said that the people picking on you will either be super gay in 10 years... or actually that is the only option.
Chris - i was just browsing videos and found you on here. I recognized you as a councelor at micah many summers ago! This is an excellent video and i hope you're doing well!
I am with you Chris, I would not want to change, being gay is part of me and could not imagine being otherwise. Would not change if there ever was such an option. Great video, well done.
Thank you for sharing your story, chris! I hope someday a gay teen having a dark moment sees this and feels hope. You're awesome. I loved the part about how parents misunderstand what gay means... too many misunderstand. it's true.
@mrchriskelley Ciao Bello! Caro Chris! (Dear Chris) May G-D bless you having been raised in "The Bosom of Holy Mother Church" as it were! Though not "Roman Catholic" myself I'm fully aware of all that can imply! But look at you now "Ragazzo Bello" a strong, fully "Out" and expressive "Gothamite"! I just want you to know that Bobby Griffiths' (Prayers for Bobby) old lover/boyfriend "Blaine" here is both grateful for this wonderful contribution , and fiercely proud of you! Blaine
I'm glad that I can be out to my parents and I am still accepted by them as their daughter, even my younger sister accepts me. I can be open and I can say "yeah I'm bisexual, if you got a problem, don't bother lecturing me." Being Bisexual to me, it means I want to find love, I don't care if my partner is male or female, I want love like anyone does, and I know I will find it. Life is too short to be in Misery, you can have fun being who you are.
I know exactly what you are talking about. I feel sorry for all kids growing uo gay. Today I'm just proud. Gay people are hotter and more intelligent than others! Great vid!
its tough embracing your difference when its dictated to you everyday to fit in. I wanted to attach a link to a post I wrote about what got me through the difficult time but unfortunatly it does'nt allow...ggrr aaarrgg.
If you want things in your life to change, you have to change things in your life. Your chance to make these changes will come on your 18th birthday. Make a plan. Stick to that plan.
Amazing video. I hope it reaches the people who need to hear. Thank you.
