A Tapestry of Stars
The first thing that drew my attention when I came into my local Pride
center for the first time was a large tapestry with gold stars covering
it. Above the tapestry was the the words "We remember" in large glowing
letters.
I went over to one of the staff and said, "Wow. That represents all the
gay, lesbian, bisexual and trans people who have lost their lives?"
"Actually, that's just for the Trans people. We need a book for the
others."
I went over to the tapestry and touched one of the stars, reading the
name embossed on it and wept.
He saw my reaction, and said "You're a girl, arent you."
"You can tell? I've been in the closet so long ...."
He smiled at me, and said, "Lets just say I could see the real you
peeking out. Does the fact you're here today mean you're considering
doing more than peek?"
"I ... I think I have to, but I'm scared. I could end up like one of these
people."
"I get that. But maybe, if you aren't alone, that wont happen."
"I dont pass, though. I cant see how I could make it work."
"Maybe one time, you could come in as your real self, and get some
objective opinions on what you need."
"I .. I will have to think about that." I said, and fled the building.
Weeks went by, and finally with the support of many friends online, I
stepped out in a skirt, and drove down to the Pride center.
I came in the door, and the same person was at the table. When he saw
me, he gave me a smile and said, "Hello. I'm glad you gave this a shot."
"Scared to death, but somehow it felt better than I expected at the same
time." I said.
"I'm sure it did. So, what will you do now?"
"Go back home, I guess. Coming in here is one thing, going to a public
place? I dont want to end up on your wall."
"You look okay, if that helps. I dont think anybody would give you a
second look."
"Nice of you to say so."
"I mean it. Look, its just about my lunch break, and I was going over to
the mall downtown for lunch. Come with me. At least then you wont be
alone if someone did act negatively."
I looked at him carefully, and felt sure he was sincere.
"Okay. But what can we do about those people on the wall, even if you're
right?"
"We remember them. But one of the ways we can honor them is by living
our lives without fear. You ready to take the plunge?" He stood and
offered his arm to me.
I looked at the tapestry, and then said, "You're.... right." I took his
arm, and we walked out the door.
"Just so you know, dear. I can't fancy you. I'm into guys only, not
pretty girls. But I would be honored to be a friend ." He said as we
left.
"I .. did you say I was pretty?"
"Just like a girl, to focus on that."
"I'm a girl."
"Duh."
"You know, I'm going to lunch with a strange man, and I dont even know
your name?"
"I'm Mark."
"Nice to meet you. Call me Sarah."
"Cool. Means 'Princess', so it suits you."
I blushed a bit, and then said, "Thank you."
We had a lovely lunch, and no one seemed to think me strange looking,
allowing my tension to fade.
"Thank you for this."
"Glad I could help. Anytime I'm free, we can do the lunch thing."
"Thank you so much. You didn't even know me, why were you willing to do
this?"
"I knew some of the people who arent on that wall, but should be. They
were not killed by others, but died at their own hand because they
couldn't stand hiding but couldn't figure out how live outside the
closet. And I could tell you were at that point."
"I... I was. Now I have hope."
"Good. Now I have to get back to work. See you next time?"
"You know it."
And as the old movie said, that was the start of a beautiful friendship.
