Coming Out Concert

I was out again tonight with another set of friends. It was a fundraising concert where one of my very good friends sang on stage. Let’s call her H. It was some sort of her coming out. Not that H was in between thus the coming out. It’s not a Birdcage type of concert with three drag queens on stage singing Diana Ross’ I’m Coming Out. It was H’s first time in many years to be back on stage. The venue was packed and there were people even outside of the bistro. The concert was that successful. I was happy to see my friend pursue her dreams. She has long wanted to nurture her creative side and it she has been trying out different things just so she gets a feel of where she truly belonged.

H was a picture of joy and she is slowly changing course. At this point in her life, she needs to be around people who understand her language and the concert was a good start. I haven’t been in touch with H as I used to but the friendship remains the same. We always pick up where we left. The day ended with a dinner at Trellis and as always, I’m in the company of good friends.
