Okay, that's good. I like being close to your family, too. It's been you and mine for so long, so I've really like getting to weave them all together.
I wish I could tell you that those people don't matter and you are who you choose to be so screw them, but I know it isn't that easy. I know that I didn't have the same experiences that you did growing up, so my understanding of what you're feeling is limited. But what I do know is that I might not have known Leonard back then, but I know you and in my almost 27 years of life on this rock, I have never met another person as singularly amazing and wonderful as you. You're talented and kind and loving and I can't imagine the last six years without you in them, becoming my rock and safe place. And I know you know how important you are to me and I don't need to remind you, but just know that there are people here who see you and love every single part of you, past and present. Smalltown jackasses come and go, but retired soccer players from New York are forever.
