Nature can mend a broken heart, that much I have always believed. I experienced it the most, not because it was supported by research. You see, strangulation is a problem that many people experience in life. Sadness, grief, loss, fear, and self-harm are emotions that we all experience-not just those of us who share my faith but also those who do not.

I'd want to publicly announce myself to anybody who is reading this, by the way. Lance here. Well, it's not my true name; it's just what you can call me. Yes, I'm not using my real name. I suppose I'm gay. But not in the homosexual sense of dressing as a woman, doing lipstick, or parading down the street in high heels while pleading with men to lust after me. I try to be quiet because right now I'm not sure what I want.

I continue to be the man who enjoys watching action movies, hanging out with guys, going on hikes, enjoying jogging, traveling, and editing films and photographs but is unable to edit his own personal life. Yes, I am just like you, whatever you may be. I still battle with my identity as a regular person. Sometimes, I prefer men. Even if it doesn't happen often, it appears to wreck my life. Not at employment, but rather in my personal life

And yeah, that's me. Fifty percent of me. Don't worry we will reach that hundred percent of what is it like in pain when no one knows.
