"Don't sneak"

10/26/2015

 

​Friday mornings are better thanks to NPR’s Storycorps. If timing is fortunate, it will become part of my commute. More than once this has meant, in a question of minutes, a what-do-I-have-to-do-today mindset that is battling traffic transforming into marveling at humanity to the point of having to wipe away some tears. The following is, no doubt, a story about a man coming to terms with his homosexuality. Zoom the perspective out, however, and there are lessons about both parenting and -at the most fundamental level- about how to live one’s own life without focusing too much on others. If only, you might think, bravery were prevalent and more people were as comfortable in their mirrors as this man.
