|   | I posed for those who can'tThursday, March 5th, 2020
      I posed because everyone should have the right to love with all their heart and to find that great love and shout it out loud .

For those who are no longer with us and for those who may not yet be ready .  Merry meet, merry part....merry meet again. ~ Heather

Later because of the hate I endured I turned to drugs as an an adult to cope. I posed to make my voice heard of the damage hate and bullying can do. I've been clean for over a year now and I am proof we are not defined by our past. Love to

|   | I’ve been an ally before I knew what it meant to be oneThursday, August 16th, 2018
      I volunteered for the Atlanta photo shoot because I believe all people should be treated equally . My mother was a Southern feminist who taught not only with her words but by her actions. She treated everyone with respect and was often judged for her open-mind . My obstetrician in the 1980s was a lesbian. I didn’t know that until many years later when Mom told me
