Solomon, you are not only a true authentic gay person, but you're a true human being and a role model for so many on how to just be a good decent human being. This is the kind of person that I am too. Sometimes I feel like I'm so alone in being a good natured person, but seeing someone like you reminds me that there really are other good souls out there. Thank you so much for being so brave and sharing your story. I felt that story about your grandma. I felt that deeply and can clearly see that you thank God for her. I'm watching this video 5 years after you posted it, but that just goes to show you that when you recorded it, you probably didn't realize that it would really keep on touching people for years to come. You're amazing. Don't ever forget that! God bless you and God bless all of us!
This is the most genuine guy and story I've ever seen! Solomon, you are well-spoken and empathetic. You deserve a great life and I'm sure you will make it so.
Dont cry 😭😭😭, sending hugs and I hope you and your family are okay now or atleast respectful. People say a lot when they are shocked and it sometimes takes a bit of time for them to come around. So don’t think one day you will not be with your bf at thanksgiving giving 🫂. How much time has passed since your coming out?
Solomon, please be proud of yourself. You are an intelligent and strong person. I wish parents would think more progressively and be open to differences in people. It can be difficult if you do not have supportive and caring relatives and friends, so seek out open-minded teachers and professional counselors who can provide the emotional balance you need. You are a great human being who has much to offer the world.
I'm happy you found yourself; sometimes, it takes decades for a person to do so. You have me thinking I should tell my story as well. Very different from yours. I see you had sympathy for your parents. I didn't at all. I told my mother girl stop crying all your foolish pride and vision for me when GOD DECIDES LIFE PURPOSE. WE GOTTA DO WHAT GOD WANTS.Well, I gotta do what God wants me to. I also said, " Momma, what do you think is gonna happen when you die and have to explain to God you didn't love me, your son cause I was a homosexual?" Don't be that stupid I told her. I'm here working God's assignment for me.
Solomon, you have nothing to be ashamed of; you were made Black and Gay by God ... parents who behave otherwise are just unknowing! You didn't lie, they just didn't know ... because you didn't know for a long time. You are awesome, my friend!
It's 2024 now and I'm 80. 🥺 You're a really exceptional young man, Solomon, in every way. I'm sure you'll do well and be happy in life. You deserve it! I'm wondering if anyone could explain to me why so many black ppl are so homophobic. I have some ideas, but I'd like to hear from others. It's even worse in the Caribbean and Africa.
Oh my dear Solomon. Your tears and tenderness touches my memories, both painful and good. My mom and great grandma ❤. There is nothing like seeing your momma cry. Thank you for sharing your story and your heart and your tender tears. Luv you brother. Lots.
Brother I felt your pain my prayers to you and your family you are Love and please love your self you are handsome looking god made you with Love my friend💕💞🙏💞🌈
Brother your video beautiful please love your life be happy God loves his children please be happy in your heart with joy and happiness you are blessed and love my Brother💞💙💞🙏💕🌈☀🌈💞💙💞🙏💕🙏💕
Such an awesome story. Hopefully it transitions people to realize that shaming someone to be who you want them to be is never healthy for anyone. We will hurt on the inside although we may not say a word. So very proud of you for having that courage to acknowledge how you truly felt and not tuck that away to satisfy your parents or anyone. We all have but there does come a time when you feel like I've had enough. Some may not ever come to that moment. But for me I'd rather live in truth knowing that I'm happy healthy and making the best of these moments that aren't forever or guaranteed to us. Love you guy stay strong. Much love and success to you. You're gonna make it after all❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🌈🌈🌈🌈
So Solomon I listened to your story again. You are a strong young man. I am like over 65 and I learned a lot from you. I would love to talk with you. I hope you are happy now.

We all only see a strong man at the beginning of the video, but watch 16:10 , watch 17:20 A lot of gay people, as strong as they may seem, have this pain inside. Still society doesnt care
I think you hit the nail on the head. Our parents and grandparents know how hard it is to JUST BE BLACK. They think to add GAY to it also is just one more thing to be hated by. But we are who we are. Much love to you my brother. I hope you are thriving now. Bless your grandmother!
I just came across your post. I am a little surprised that I didn't see it before, and I am not sure if your site is still active. i am hoping that it is. Your are a great young man in every aspect - good looking, intelligent and obviously take very good care of himself. I guess by now you have completed your university training and I wish you all the success. You are so right - everybody deserves to be happy, including you. I think you are now happier although the memories make you still very emotional. Make sure you find someone who appreciates the wonderful person that you are, treat you with the respect you deserve and provider you with the depth of unconditional love that you have to give. Keep loving yourself. Love you Solomon.
Hey buddy, just found you and subbed. This video was from 4 years ago, so I hope things have gone well for you. You are the genuine young man that I identify with after teaching and counseling over 7000 of you guys. This video will help save lives.......thank you for making it. Your wisdom fits your name Solomon. Thank you and God bless........Ray
Solomon. Thank you for sharing your story. To many times parents make it about themselfs not realizing that there child has lived in pain for many years. You are a very beautiful gay man. I am a 73year old gay man married to dennis for many years now. Canada has legal marrage for MANY years now. I wish you peace and happynes and hope you find the love of your life. I adore your grandmother that is how a parent should react . Many hugs to you, I know you came out on youtube in 2018 and i would love to know how you are 4 yeras later. Love you lots . Alber
