For my family

This post is going to be just for my family members that are afar. I wish that I really could see you guys more often and be able to tell you things like this in person. For the time being though I will have to settle for my blog.

I am very happy where I am at here in Utah and with my life so far. Things can be rough at times, as it is with anyone. You live and learn as I have learned from all of my family. Mistakes are made to be learned from, not to be regretted in the future. This is one thing I can deal with now.

Probably the most important thing that I want you to know about me I will say a little bit later. You should know though that I am very happy with who i am and I don't doubt for a moment of who I am or what I can become. I am proud of my family down here and accepting me for who I am, without any judgment. They love me no matter what. I know you will too. I have become a great man throughout my life and no doubt I will continue to grow and become even better. I felt throughout most my childhood that I was a failure and I was different from others that I knew and grew up with. I now realize that Yes I am different, but I am not a failure.
I am proud of myself. I am Gay, this is not something that I choose, but something i learned about myself over the years. When I was just young I happened to be confused because I didn't know what was different about me. But I knew back towards the beginning of college, I knew that I was gay a long time, but didn't tell anyone. I didn't even tell Mom until I was 23. And since there was a blurb about me during the last time I was there, I needed to just come out to the rest of the the family. I don't want to hide who i really am anymore. I just want to be myself.

I love you all so much. I am still that same Jason that you have always known, except you know a little more about me now. You all wanted to be more a part of my life, so now you can. This is me, no more, no less.
