It’s National Coming Out Day! Some things to know:

Coming out can be a beautiful, empowering thing that makes your life easier;

But it’s also really scary and can sometimes, for a little while or for a long time, make life harder;

So it’s important to come out on your own terms, when and where you’re ready, at whatever pace feels right to you;

And equally important never to out anyone for any reason;

But whether you’re ready today or tomorrow or not for a very long time, lots of people love you and are ready to welcome you with open arms. Take your time.

Happy National Coming Out Day. I’m so proud to be a part of this community with you all, and I hope you are too. ❤️
