“For two minutes a day, think of one positive experience that's occurred during the past 24 hours. Bullet point each detail you can remember.

“You can argue that it's a different world now than the one when Matthew Shepard was killed, but there is a subtle difference between tolerance and acceptance. It's the distance between moving into the cul-de-sac and having your next door neighbor trust you to keep an eye on her preschool daughter for a few minutes while she runs out to the post office.
