National Coming Out Day

Today is National Coming Out Day. The HRC has come up with a way to get people to "Talk About It". The campaign is simply called "Talk About It". Coming out is one of the hardest things a gay person can do...I know...I have been there. The fear of abandonment is immense, but so is the inner turmoil that a person faces because they are afraid of the consequences of being who they are. So, if you know someone who is having a hard time coping and dealing with being gay, offer support, let them know that they aren't alone, because that feeling of being alone and having to deal with something so HUGE is part of what keeps so many people in the closet.
