A story about Melissa Etheridge
Her music played a huge part in my coming out as a lesbian. I had been struggling and denying for about 7 years and, when I first heard her songs, I was amazed to hear someone singing exactly what I had been feeling for so long! I saw her in concert at Smirnoff in Dallas, and I truly did shed tears when she came out on stage and spoke into the microphone. I want to meet her and tell her how grateful I am; her open, honest, REAL lyrics helped me admit who I really am and led me to the inner peace I had not had for years.
