Breaking the Chain with bleeding feet.

Description

Man I'm glad this is done! So this is the first non-doll work I've posted here in a long, long while. I just knew I had to join in the Pride Event and that it had to be Purple for Spiritual. This is because as a gay Christian, coming out has been one of the most spiritual parts of my life. For quite a long time, I've felt fake and not "myself" as my mentors in church have always advocated I be. Once I realized I was gay last fall, it all clicked into place. The title of the work comes from Trey Pearson's "Silver Horizon" which is explicitly about coming out as a religious person (he himself is gay and was closeted for twenty years) and while the journey is hard, it's overall worth it. I'm not out to everyone, like my family, but I have a support group that's been keeping me sane.

Congratulations, friend. I couldn't imagine what it'd be like for me to go through that sort of thing. I hope you find the person who makes you happy.
