I’ve been through the dark. I come out in the light and I express myself.
I don’t let it [stigma] bother me. As long as the Good Lord guides me every day, I don’t let it bother me at all.
It’s good for the church to know about [HIV+] people, about their situations and so when someone wants help, he/she says pray for them. It’s about people getting together, loving one another.
That’s a picture that’s putting me in mind of Christmas and the beautiful things we’re around each other every day during that season, and it brings out the joy.
The Christmas holiday reminds me of my family, and that you ain’t dead no more. When I look at these lights, I imagine myself, my brothers and sisters, we are all together, one family.
Half of them are gone. Just me, my nieces and nephew, my brother and sisters are left. I look at this picture and I just see us all together and how we’d be together for the holidays. All of us being like that, together, brings out the joy. That’s the way we do it.
