This was really beautiful to read. I hope you get the chance to share with those teachers how you are paying forward what that small gesture did for you. Thanks for writing this!!
Thanks, Amy! That’s a good idea. Blocking out so much from those years makes it difficult to remember names… maybe it’s time to find those old yearbooks.
I related to so much of this — both from the perspective of the teacher designing assignments to help students understand themselves AND and the perspective of the kid who used those assignments to realize he way gay. Reading this meant a lot to me — thank you so much for writing and sharing!
