text: I went to the SLC pride parade (for the first time). I took a few of my kids and we went with my gay sibling and met up with a gay cousin (and partner). It was pretty cool. I don't think I've ever been in a setting like that where there was such a high level of acceptance. No one is judging anyone else. All are accepted. Honestly, it was much more enlightening and satisfying than any church meeting I went to in 40 years of active membership.
