Finally Friday - The House of Hidden Meanings Review

The boy with the  unusual name

RuPaul Charles just knew he was meant  for bigger things in this  world. 

The House of Hidden Meanings is one  of his memoirs and it is a fascinating  read. He has a way with words. He's had an amazing life so far. And he's driven. He's had a mission.  He's unique. 

Reading  this is following  a  person into self-actualization.  He always knew he wasn't like anyone else. And when he dressed and performed in  drag - well.........magic.   He was tall. He was lovely. He had  style. He just knew........

The rest  of the world had  to catch up.  

p. 190   All my adventures, all those failed attempts at becoming something - I had just been  gathering  string. 

I really enjoyed this memoir.  He's different in a good way.  He truly found his way which I admire. He's funny as hell.  What the heck! Just be who you are,  embrace who you are, and embrace love, hard work, and  go with it.  Dang  good!
