Thumbs-up and a friendly smile from a stranger. The beginning of another travel-story: when I left home and my parents had no idea I was getting out of the house. (And I will tell you if I ever go back.)
The first thing I noticed was that I looked a lot younger when I left. The first thing the taxi driver (who was also the first American to ever hail cabs) said to me as we pulled away was that I looked like a younger version of my parents. But it wasn’t the whole truth. I had long straightened hair and a new tan. And the taxi driver was almost always wrong. One of the things that really amazed me is that despite coming out of a strict religious denomination and going to the most extreme and most conservative church I have ever attended in my life, I had come out with a smile. I never even mentioned the religion – or what it stood for – in the taxi on the way home. My father is Jewish, a Lutheran. My mother is a member of the Jehovah’s Witness body. When I walked into my parents’ home that first night, they had nothing to say about my coming out and my new identity….
