It's National Coming Out Day. I am proud to be an ally and I'm proud to be known around the school community for being accepting and teaching tolerance. I wish I could open all minds and hearts. Love is love. It's time to pass the peace.
One of the most enduring couples I know is gay. They are lovers and best friends and totally committed to their relationship. I have seen many hetero marriages unable to withstand the test of time that they have. It makes me nuts that the whole world doesn't celebrate their accomplishment!
Hopefully the students you enable (in the best, non-codependent sense of the word!) will know that same happiness.

You're a great teacher and an even better person!

Good for you! There is SO much intolerance. You are helping...
Thank you for being an ally.
