Hardest thing to lose? Tearing down my existing identity that was cultivated in a homophobic/anti-queer environment, and rebuilding it piece by piece. That liminal doorway between the old world but having not yet arrived into the new one can be a very scary place to navigate all on your own, which so many of us have to do 🫶
