Friends and Allies: Bianco e bianco in questo mondo grigio.

A friend has shared something secret, and wonderful with me today.

Perhaps I am not as alone in this world as I had so sadly imagined myself to be.

How wonderful it is to discover that someone already so admired, has the rare, unexpected quality of sincere, unabashed sentiment.

In finding this comrade in arms, I have found a new source of hope in my own self, and a reassurance that my path might actually be the right one.

To my friend (you know who you are): Thank you for reminding me that I can be proud of who I am, and for teaching me how I can indeed use that pride as a source of strength. Thank you.
