Diana Oh's Love Letter
Diana Oh tells herself that the city she lives in is not the only city, the friends she has will not be her only friends, that the words she uses to describe herself will come in time. She promises that one day she will feel safe in her own skin and that even though her family will never fully except her relationships, her friends will.

00:01Dear me, you are doing really, really great.
00:05You don't have a word for what you are now, but you will.
00:09And the friends you have won't be the only friends you will have for the rest of your
00:13life.
00:13And these new friends you meet in this new town and later on in a whole new city will
00:19become your family.
00:21And not only will they think the way you think, but they will actually celebrate the way you
00:26are.
00:26I know it's hard right now, the way that everyone talks shit in high school, the way
00:31they call you a slut for simply exploring your sexuality, but you will go to a college
00:35where you will learn to feel safe in your skin and have lots of exploratory sex with lots of
00:41hot people and you will learn to celebrate yourself and it will make you love people
00:45even more.
00:46You'll fall in love with someone incredible and your family may never accept or understand
00:51your relationship, but your friends will and you will.
00:56Don't be afraid to live a life full of what you want it to be full of.
00:59Don't be afraid to move to another city on your own.
01:02You'll learn to celebrate all the things that made you feel different.
01:05And you'll also have lots of interests, hobbies and passions that have nothing to do with
01:10your sexual orientation or your gender.
01:13Please be happy with who you are because that is all anyone wants for you and all you want
01:18for anyone else.
01:20You're doing really, really great.
01:22Have fun.
01:25Love.
01:26Me.
01:26You.
01:29You.
