Thanks for all the messages on this 11th Anniversary of my publicly coming out (10/13/10)...here's a sampling of some of my favorites from Facebook in the last few hours...Ken and I will celebrate our 7th wedding anniversary in a few weeks, and our 10th anniversary of being together in a few months...since that night in October of 2010, he and I have lost both of our fathers, gained 3 more grandchildren, and have enjoyed every single day of our life together...Metron Community is now in its 8th year, and we will have our 12th Meditation Weekend in a few days...life is good...thanks for remembering!

9 YEARS LATER
Yesterday was National Coming Out Day, this weekend is Atlanta Pride (the above pic with the rainbow cake was taken last evening), and tomorrow is the 9th anniversary of my public coming out...the outpouring of beautiful messages that I've received today in response to the pics below, which I posted on Facebook and Instagram, has been literally overwhelming...too many to post here...several times today I've teared up at reading your beautiful, affirming words, and I am flooded with thoughts of gratitude this evening...
I'm especially grateful for where I am on my journey these 9 years later...Ken and I have been together 71/2 years now, and will celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary in December...we were together through the last 2 years at Church In The Now, the 5+ years of METRON, his father's illness and passing, the birth of his 2 granddaughters, the birth of my 3rd granddaughter, the care of my elderly parents, the passage of Marriage Equality, my 60th birthday, and countless happy days and joy-filled experiences...we see our six children regularly and are so proud of all of them, love the METRON COMMUNITY, enjoy living in the city, and daily live the life that we have imagined...
On this 9 anniversary of this important day, I want to express my profound gratitude to all of you who have supported me/us, and especially to those who have stayed with me as a part of my ministry...
I feel the love...
