My heart goes out to all those living on the fringes "within" a family/not a part of the mainstream - by choice, socially, economically, racially, culturally, habitually, sexually - who make an extra conscious effort to prove themselves instead of just letting it be. Despite being themselves unapologetically, those who harbor somewhere a little desire to prove a point to and be taken seriously by the dismissive, judgmental majority.
Sometimes not necessarily out of force but out of love for the close ones, and out of fear of losing them.
