Happy Tears

By A Friend • November 11, 2020

Right now I’m laying in bed next to the love of my life with happy tears in my eyes because I’m about to graduate college from my dream school with a degree in my dream job. And I’m just so overwhelmed with happiness. Flashback to 5+ years ago. I was so unsure that I’d ever make it into any college, yet alone graduate. And I was so scared of being alone, being gay felt like the hardest thing back then. I just know that the younger version of myself is fist bumping the air and so hype for this version of myself. Like I did it. I did this. I put myself through school, I’m in a happy healthy relationship. Everything worked out and I just wow. It’s amazing.
