Cool name, and thanks for your transcription contribution. I've been writing on this blog for quite some time now, and I just wasn't sure how the idea of forgiveness from our vantage point would go over. I'm so glad that you got it.
I'm the only open LGBTQ black man on California death row, so forgiveness is either a religious thing or not talked about at all. I don't ever hear about LGBTQ fam talking about granting forgiveness. So my ink pen just started spilling ink from my side of it. Sounds like you may have come up with a few people from your life that you could consider forgiving. If so, good. :) Welcome to the future.
My name is Xzyzst (exist) because after that rough childhood and being raised in the hood, in the inner city streets of Compton, California, my thug version of LGBTQ became more of a curse than anything. Being straight is not an act and thug is a label that came from street culture/Indian society. But my real name is Floyd Smith.

Thank you for your kind words and for confirming that the chance I took on writing about forgiveness touches everybody. Stay at me fam.
