In the beginning...
I wrote this journal entry when I was 12 years old, two days before Christmas.
The 12-year-old handwriting reads:
Dear God,
At the moment my thoughts are really annoying. I thought a movie would distract them but it didn’t. They are the thoughts of people and me being gay. I know I am not gay and my mind thinks stupid things.
Spoiler alert, kid… people, and especially you, are gay. God already knew that. And you’re going to think of a lot “stupider” things in your lifetime. And now you’re ready to tell people about them.
