Pride: Feeling of deep pleasure or satisfaction

June 24th 2023: Such an amazing and beautiful day for Fayetteville, NC. We all came together to show support, to show PRIDE! It didn’t matter who you were, LOVE was shown. There were churches showing their support and love, Mothers and Fathers with shirts that said I AM PROUD OF YOU: FREE HUGS. There were little kids in rainbow from head to toe because their moms and dads are teaching them to keep their minds open and not judge and just LOVE. I myself brought my boys as well.

I grew up in the Theatre and of course was always surrounded by LGBT, but it wasn’t always prideful and as big as it is now. It just warms my heart seeing how much Pride and Excitement and love was happening despite the heat, despite the rains that had taken over NC all week long and was supposed to come today as well.

NO ONE CARED! WE ARE ALL HUMAN! I love you and your are safe with me! <3
