Today is not only my birthday…
I was born on this day in 1977. July 14 is not only my birthday, it has actual historical significance. In France, this is their biggest national holiday…Bastille Day, or French National Day.

I want to tell you a story. It’s about a boy. I don’t know his real name. That information is confidential. So we’re just going to call him Sean. He grew up in a conservative family in California. Like all kids do, he loved his family, even if they were not perfect. And for many…
