From the start of our same-sex partnership, I wanted Kay to be a viable and visible part of my life. Therefore it was important for me to bring her into my involvements as much as possible and to the extent she would allow. Shy around people, she was most comfortable behind-the-scenes. "I'm a poor chief, but I make a pretty good Indian," she told me.
I was envious of how introspective she was; how readily she knew where she belonged and there was able to make great contributions. I am a risk-taker and I think with my heart. Before I met Kay this often landed me in places I shouldn't have been.
From Kay I began to recognize what's important and what isn't. It's a great lesson learned. Some people belong on the stage; other should work behind it.
Everyone is important and Kay is a perfect example of this.
We're counting the days until our Civil Union.
