My Turn to Decide

I was driving to the mall to get some clothes for school today and a song came onto the radio. This song literally was written about my life. Its called 'King of Anything' by Sara Bareilles. The lyrics in this song match my life to a tee! I'm in love!!

 All my life
I've tried
To make everybody happy while I
Just hurt
And hide
Waitin' for someone to tell me it's my turn
To decide


I personally struggle with the thoughts of what others will think of me. To be labeled as "the gay kid." I'm so much more than that and I hope people don't stereotype me just because of my sexuality.

So if you haven't already read my last blog post, I plan on coming out of the closet to my sister this weekend, if my brother can come into town. I want him to be there when I tell her. I also decided when I get back to school, I'm telling two of my best friends right away.

Its about time I start living my life instead of hiding from the world and worrying about what other people will think of me. I know there will be individuals who are going to gossip, but I've mentally prepared myself for that. Since making this blog, I've become a stronger and more confident person, someone that's ready to start showing people the real me.

I've been waiting for someone to tell me that it's my turn to decide...and that person was me all along.
