Imagine A World Where Being “Gay” The Norm & Being “Straight” Would Be The Minority! [Short Film]
I love the expression, “All you need is love.” It does make me feel good and in theory for us to be truly happy do we really need anything else? The modern world is filled with distractions and expectations for our self and others. More often than not we let these expectations cloud our judgement and we end up constantly feeling like we’re missing out. In today’s world is love really enough?
With the constant bombardment of “stuff” coming at us from all directions it is hard enough to grow up in today’s society. There are pressures coming at us from all angles including parents, teachers, social media, magazines, relatives, friends and many more. No wonder there is a rise in depression and anxiety.
This video has a very eye opening perspective on what added pressures our LGBT youth face on a daily basis. All we want is to be happy and other people with different perspectives on the way life should be put pressures on us.
It breaks my heart to see our LGBT youth struggle. Even though I am no longer a teenager I too have a constant struggle with ignorance and prejudice on a daily basis. The one thing I have is a support system and coping skills that help me with confidence and intern I live my life with pride, and I am unapologetically me. I have the coping skills to brush off the ignorance and judgement I receive on a daily basis. We shouldn’t have to live this way!
