Can I say I have never been more proud to be bisexual?
I went to the Chicago Pride Parade on Sunday with my sister and had a great time. Even if we didn't really talk to anyone else and no one really talked to us or anything it was still an amazing experience. There was just so much love everywhere. So so much.
Everyone was happy and having a great time and waving and so many high fives from the people in the parade it was awesome.
I am so glad I decided to come out last summer. Being able to go to that and just be myself was something amazing.
It's really hard to describe the feeling exactly. We got to the city after being on a train full of pride folks. Then we walked to a bus stop and the bus was sort of empty but the closer we got the more people started to crowd the bus. More and more people wearing more and more colors. At one point a girl yelled "I love everyone here!" and I knew I was in the right place.
My sister and I got hugged by someone in the parade and we were surrounded by happy, loving people. We stood there for probably three or so hours just enjoying the people around us. Felt like no time at all and I was very sad when it was over.
We did an hour and half walk back to the train station and headed home. It was an amazing day. Just being there was amazing. I am looking forward to going next year with more of my friends so it can be a bigger party and even more fun.
I am really proud of who I am. I am trying to be more proud of who I am. It's been interesting in my head trying to focus more on myself and what I want instead of just pleasing everyone all the time. I am still working on it and I am not there yet but I am getting better. I still like doing things for people I just need to do things for myself too instead of completely ignoring myself.
Also there were a lot of attractive people at the parade and we didn't mind that one bit.
Ok that is all. Thanks for reading as always. Stay awesome and be who you want to be!
