As my vacation continues, I plan to do nothing today. I don’t plan to go anywhere or do anything. I’ll probably turn on the tv as background noise, but there really isn’t anything I’m dying to watch. I may get a burst of energy at some point, but it doesn’t feel likely at this point. I had a hard time waking up this morning, even though I went to bed early last night. Isabella even gave up trying to wake me up. I finally did get up, fed her, and made my breakfast. I just want to take it easy today.
I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's.
My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces.
