Five years ago, I witnessed an overweight girl being harassed. A group of “popular girls” had pulled down her pants while we were leaving school. The girl grabbed her pants and ran away crying. Our school’s star quarterback chased after her to comfort her.
I just came back from their wedding. GMH.
Today I brought my boyfriend home for the first time.
My former boyfriends have felt uncomfortable around my sister, Katie, who has Down Syndrome.
When Katie met my boyfriend, she hugged him and said “I love you already.” What did my boyfriend do? He said “I love you too. Sorry, Auden, but she’s stolen my heart.”
His understanding GMH
My 24 year old neighbor is in the military. He has a wife and 2 year old son. He has cancer in both kidneys. He is said to have 6 months to live. Instead of staying home with his wife and child, he has gone back to Iraq to die. He’s doing this so his wife will get all the possible benefits from his death. His sacrifice, selflessness, and love GMH
