A year and a half ago I realized how much I had to say, feeling unseen, not knowing how to express my emotions without looking down upon. In latino community emotions are an enemy. They stop you from reaching your goals, at least that is how I was raised. It's hard to be upset at our mamas and papas, I mean for a few hours maybe you can, but how do you expect comfort and apologies from those who didn't receive that. I came out as bisexual to my family, although the feelings were all over the place, I was surprised by the acceptance in my family, but there were tough times to get there. That's where my song “Sunflower”got inspired from. I have so many friends that came out to their parents, and they weren’t as fortunate to get understood, so I wrote “Sunflower”, so they know they’re heard, that there are a lot of people that are going through the same thing. I started getting reached out by people. People who were hurting and felt that lump in their throat go away after hearing that song. I realized this is what I need to do, I need to be a voice for those that can’t express that feeling, for those who feel alone, for those who deserve to know they are loved.
