Happy ThanksGAYving!

As a gay man, I’m thankful for a lot of things…

I’m thankful for musicals. Whether it’s the sincerity of Julie Andrews in The Sound of Music, 

the power of J-Hud in Dreamgirls,

the sassiness of Rita Moreno in West Side Story,

or the romanticism of Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor in Moulin Rouge,

they always know how to put a smile on my face!

I’m thankful for Tony Horton & Shaun T. Without them, my gay body physique would not exist or continue to build.

I’m thankful for fruity drinks. Lawd knows I can’t take anything straight (pun intended), so I’m eternally thankful for Malibu, Pinnacle, margaritas, Mike’s, and Three Olives.

I’m thankful for Liza, Barbra, Cher, Donna, Cyndi, and George for paving the way for musicians today and embracing the gays with open arms.

I’m thankful for GaGa, Madonna, Britney, Nicki, Beyoncé, and Adam for keeping the faith and giving us music to dance to and appreciate.

I’m thankful for role models like Anderson Cooper, Zachary Quinto, Matt Bomer, Neil Patrick Harris, and Ellen, proving that being gay in Hollywood sometimes makes you even more special than the rest of the bunch. It gives me hope when I finally make it out there!

I’m thankful for Will & Grace. Nothing has and nothing will EVER replace this show in my heart. That is all…

I’m thankful for the best of friends that anyone could ever ask for. I’m thankful that nothing changed when I “came out”, that they love me no matter what. I’m also thankful that they’re all crazy as hell!

I’m thankful for my family, for always loving me through every high or low, for their unconditional support, and for their patience and understanding in whatever I do.

And most importantly I’m thankful for my faith, my beliefs, my Lord, and my everything. He made me this way for a reason, and although times are troubled, things may get extremely difficult, I have my faith to fall on, to support me in everything I do. I am forever thankful for all that He has done to bless with me with the life I have lived thus far.

Happy Thanksgiving. HOLLA!
