abuelo,

instead of asking, ‘¿why did diosito give me a gay grandson?’

ask 

‘how will my grandson survive in this world’?
‘how can he risk it all everyday to be his true self’?
‘how does he have the courage to go against what I want, what our family wants from him?’
‘how can he still be so brave to love’?
‘how does he still have space to be angry’?

and i will answer

it comes from you abue. the heart. the anger. the love. the strengh. viene de ti.

–my abue’s only gay grandson
