    My heart is breaking, Chris. Both you and your relationship with Clays warms my heart more than you can know. It makes me so happy to hear you talk about this so openly.

    I came out to my parents earlier this year and it went really well. My mom of course cried, I didn’t, I thought I was going to because I cried when I told my college friends, but I didn’t and she accepted me. As for my dad, my mom told him and he didn’t question anything, he just told me “I love you” and that’s it, nothing more. I took me years and years to finally tell myself and then have the courage to come out. It wasn’t an easy journey, I’ve always known I was different at a very young age and I grew going to a catholic school for 10 or 11 years, however, they never said that homosexuality was wrong because they’ve never mentioned it, all they taught us was to love and spread kindness, that’s it. But the thing is, I grew up feeling insecure, anxious and not courageous, so it was tough, but of course I took some time and I’m very happy with who I am and I wouldn’t change it for anything or anyone. I’m very grateful to have such a loving family and I always sang and listened to music because music is what can heal anyone when going through hard times. I would constantly listen to Born this way, Firework, Break Free or any other lgbt anthems that could help me be strong and years later, I finally came out. Just remember that you were born that way and god made you who you are and that’s it. I’m a strong believer and I pray for better days and thankfully there are better days. When you spread kindness and love, good things happen because that’s all what god wants. He wants you to love yourself and spread love. Also, it’s important to find balance within yourself before you go out and help others, because if you want to be a positive influence towards others, you need to love yourself, be kind to yourself, be honest to yourself and surrender those insecurities. It’s not easy, but it’s always possible. Love both you so much, thank you for this video, hope you’re doing well and keep spreading positivity and kindness ❤️

    All Gay men must have their Gay men friends group and all the LGBT people must do the same 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️ It is important to be with people like us, to be around other Gay men and create Gay friendships inside our Gay community between us; in the same way that straight men and women have their women or men friends group. Gay men together forever ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️

    "people often associate like homosexual with a sexual aspect and not like the love aspect"

    Thank you for sharing your stories and highlighting the fact that being gay is NOT ONLY ABOUT SEX!!! I wish the world would wrap its thick head around that.

    I never miss a single video of your vlog, though this one was the most awaited one, so liberating at the same time. Look at you guys, both of you have achieved reality, didn't embrace fake showcasing. Life is given to us just once......once! Keep smiling Chris and Clay and remember to care and support each other as strong husbands.
