Imagine living in a world where someone is made to feel that dying is better than being themselves. And now, imagine the exact opposite- that no matter who you are, your life should be celebrated and you deserve to belong to something. With someone, if you choose to.
We can’t control who we fall in love with. Imagine feeling the pressure when your choice is questioned every time, not because of the attributes of that person but because of their orientation.
I don’t have any strong political views and I’d never argue over which country has the best soccer ⚽️team. But this is about individual freedom. The ability to express themselves for who they are and not have to hide it in fear of retaliation.
Those who think that this school of thought is ‘weakening’ men, I’d say to them - loving another man is not ‘weakness’, hurting a woman influenced by toxic masculinity is.
Pride is important because it allows individuals to celebrate and embrace their identity, fostering a sense of self-acceptance and empowerment. It is a way for marginalized communities, such as the LGBTQ+ community, to assert their visibility, rights, and dignity.
Pride events and movements provide spaces for individuals to connect, find support, and challenge discrimination. Pride can also inspire social change, promoting equality, inclusivity, and acceptance for all people, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
In the month of pride, let us sing,
A celebration of love in everything.
A rainbow of colors, shining bright,
Guiding us with its radiant light.
For pride is a beacon, a powerful force,
Uniting hearts, setting a new course.
It speaks of courage, strength, and grace,
A reminder that diversity we embrace.
In this month, we stand tall and true,
Valuing every individual, me and you.
Breaking down walls, dispelling fears,
Creating a world where acceptance appears.
Let love be the anthem, that echoes wide,
In every corner, spreading far and wide.
For pride is a reminder, loud and clear,
That every person has the right to be here.
So let us march together, hand in hand,
Building bridges, across every land.
In this month of pride, let us all be,
A testament to love's true legacy.
For love knows no bounds, no limitations,
It's a language that unites all nations.
In pride we celebrate, in love we thrive,
A kaleidoscope of life, forever alive.
So raise your voice, let your colors unfurl,
In this month of pride, let love swirl.
For we are a tapestry, diverse and grand,
Bound by love, united we shall stand.
