As Pride Month narrows to an end, sharing three of my passions: couture design, pride as a gay man, and chronicling "moments."
As a young boy, I lacked understanding of who I was. As a young man, I lacked courage to be him, bravely. As a man now squarely in my "middle years" and out for 25 of them, measuring the moments of joy, of life, of love, and of impact, have become all that really matter to me.
If you know me, you know that I work hard, I love hard, and I tirelessly, unapologetically and passionately advocate for the people, places and things that I love. If you know me, you know that I measure my success in the moments where I see or help others achieve theirs.
If you have touched my life, I am blessed and ever grateful.
If I have touched yours, thank you for the privilege. I appreciate you.
To be proud of anything is an accomplishment.
To be proud of yourself, of the human being that you are, is life's ultimate lesson and teacher. I hope you are proud of you. Because I am.
