As pride month slowly reaches its end, I notice myself feeling regretful for everything I failed to do to celebrate it this year.

I thought about the events I could have gone to, the art I could have made, everything I missed out on, and everything I COULD have done.

I needed to remind myself of something very important, the reason we have Pride in the first place.

We NEED Pride. No matter what happens we need to ensure that Pride never ends.

Everything I COULD have done to celebrate my identity this June can be done just the same in July.

Because Pride NEVER ends.

So, be Prideful in July, be Prideful in August, be Prideful every month up until the year ends, and then next year, do it again.

We NEED pride. Now more than ever. So, show those colors proudly. I invite everyone to join me, in being a little more prideful this year.

Pride is now, Pride is forever and always will be. As long as we exist, there will be Pride.

And with that, I hope you all have a wonderful and Happy Pride Month❤️
