IMAGINES ft. BeaDdie [EDITING]

🌈

Hi! So this isn't an update and I am sorry if that makes you sad.  😞 I am writing this one in celebration of Pride Month because obviously, I can't make a *ehem* "speech" in Twitter out of 250 words.

I just want to say that I am damn proud of everyone here who are true to themselves, whether you are out or not.

Being a member of a community that experiences oppression, mistreatment, and judgment every damn time isn't that easy. Being treated like a trash just because they think that you're different hurts so much. And I want to commend all of the people who keeps on staying strong despite of all these instances.

You don't have to be gay to support LGBTQ+ community. If you think that you're straight but believes that everyone should be treated equally and with equity, and you also believe that love should not be bounded by genders, then please identify yourself as our ally. We need people who will accept us and treat us like human beings, with real feelings. We need people who will stand by our side. And if you're straight and you're reading this, and you believe in everything that was stated above, THANK YOU! THANK YOU FOR BEING WITH US. 💙

I can't blame those people who are still hiding deep in the closet. We are living in a cruel world, and hiding in the closet is one of safest haven for some queers. Hiding in the closet will save you from embarrassment. Yes. I was once in the closet too. Hiding, and running away from the fact that I am bisexual because I was too scared that my friends might shoo me away. I was afraid that the world might turn its back against me. But I found peace when I came out and I saw the sunshine and rainbows. 🌈

Coming out isn't just all about talking to your friends and family then suddenly tell them "hey, I'm gay." No, it is not just like that. Coming out is telling the people you love and letting them understand who you really are. But the saddest fear and the saddest truth is, coming out is not all about rainbows and sunshine. In the process of coming out, there would be people who will turn their back against you. There would be people who will leave you. There would be people who will get mad at you. And that's the most hurtful thing someone can ever experience, but nonetheless, always remember that those who really love you, those who understand you, those who are real to you, will stay by your side and accept you for who you really are, without hesitation. Keep in mind that in your hardest battle, you will know your real allies. 😊

You don't have to come out if you're not ready yet. No one should be pressured of coming out. You should come out in your own time. You should come out when you're ready, not because someone has told you to. Coming out will never be easy. Coming out needs time. And if you're not out yet, please always remember that the whole LGBTQ+ community will stand by you whatever happens. We got you. We are family in this community.

Being true to yourself should not be mocked. Being true to yourself should not be judged. No one should experience oppression and mistreatment just because they are being true to themselves.

I remember Taylor Swift saying "if you're lucky enough to be different, don't you ever change."  And I want everyone of us to live with that quote. We should not change ourselves just to fit in the societal norms. We should always choose to be real. 😊

LOVE SHOULD NOT BE BOUNDED BY GENDER NORMS. LOVE IS LOVE, AND LOVE SHOULD ALWAYS WIN. 🌈💙💚💫

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH TO ALL THE GAYS AND TO OUR ALLIES. I LOVE YOU ALL! THANK YOU! 🌈
