Last July 3th I wrote a small letter in word. During the night I though sending it to all my contacts. So te next day I send this all of my contacts. The first person was my mothers's cousin, she is nisce with me, when I suffred of self-harm, she supported me, helped me to heal, so I wanted send it to her before everyone. When she replay me I was in Como, and when I read her message I was happy becasue she wrote to me that words

"Dear Chiara, I read your written and what I would say is that you were very brave.
Know your sexual orientation does not shock me and I wish you much serenity. A hug"

After send this I decided to send to all of my contacts definitively! All of my friend accepted that. The sad was the react of my parents and my brother. My mother said "you are a jerk, do not say these things if you do not want to end up in the shit" and more things not great, my father didn't speak with me for a bit of day, my brother was "yes, okay, but no, ...". My sister was happy, she wanted buy a cake and make a party for that.
But the best replay was from G., one of my friend, she so great and she said:

"My love, you can make all the choices you want. You are a great friend of mine and I will always accept you, whatever you choose to do I will be there to help or just to talk. I love you and I always will! Thanks for telling me this thing, I'm very glad you had the courage to say so !! It will not be your sexual orientation to change our friendship!"

More relatives accepted that and was so happy for that and for my bravery!!

And this was my coming out:

"Hi,
I hope that the life smile to you, but if the life do not this I would like that you sit down, possible in a comfortable palce, bacuse today I will tell you one thing that is going on for some time and I want to say. This is a really sotry, is my story, this is my secret, maybe the heavier and deep then I have.

I hope you are ready to listen to me and accept me for who really I am and understand that the emotions that I feel do not change the person I am, indeed, makes me true, makes me only myself. I will try to be brief and precise, something that I find it hard, but I want taht you now the real Chiara, the one I had to hide for a long time.

This letter next 11 October hed to arrive, but as I said before, I don't want hide anymore.

I want myself, I want be happy, because hiding is the hard evidence that a person can do in their life A few months ago I opened a vlog on wattpad, online platform where anyone with a passion for writing can publish his books. My first book was "BecauseThese We are", this book tells the story of Martha, a woman who never gives up, in spite of everything and everyone. She is a strong supporter of LGBT rights, especially after the suicide of his sister Amelia. This death was very unexpected but made for the inconsistency of his nation. The girl who married in Switzerland died of cancer and his nation did not recognize her position. After the death of her sister, Martha, he spoke to the heads of state and after much hard work were legalized civil union.

While last month, I had the opportunity to begin a long journey, for several cities, this time I have "touched" Zurich and Milan. In these two long journeys, I attended two Pride. Finally, after months and months of inner discomfort, diversity, I could be proud of, but life, my choices, and all that I did not accept before, especially discrimination.
This is my coming out, word comes from English and means "come out" in this case means "come out." It's been so long since I wanted to come out but I could not find a valid reason to do so, I was not ready, and do not think of it again, I do not think I ever will be, but I have to, I have to, I do not feel safe and I want to be me same, for once. So, in a nutshell, I am a lesbian and I'm not a truck driver, as many people believe that we are.

Most likely it's a disappointment to you, and I'm sorry if this is so, but what can I do? It is not a choice about their sexual orientation, is a pretend straight choice when you have not. You are free to not to talk to me, you are free to insult me, you are free to do what you want. The only thing I ask is that if you want to discuss this thing call me, write me, but speak to me, do not talk to others and do not tell the others, although they're slowly discovering all, but in any case, do not tell. It's the only thing I ask of you! You can go now, you're free to do what you were doing. I'm sorry I interrupted you, but I wanted to tell you that my great little secret! Take care and see you soon!
