In an incredibly moving Facebook post,Randy Spears Archives Eat, Pray, Loveauthor Elizabeth Gilbert has described being in a relationship with a woman -- her best friend, Rayya Elias.
Tragically, the bestselling writer also told readers about Elias's cancer diagnosis, making the status, written Tuesday, heartbreaking as well as uplifting.

She writes, "Death — or the prospect of death — has a way of clearing away everything that is not real, and in that space of stark and utter realness, I was faced with this truth: I do not merely love Rayya; I am in love with Rayya.
"And I have no more time for denying that truth. The thought of someday sitting in a hospital room with her, holding her hand and watching her slide away, without ever having let her (or myself!) know the extent of my true feelings for her...well, that thought was unthinkable."
Just TRY to not cry reading the full passage. It's sobering, beautifully sincere stuff.
Stand in your truth, Elizabeth Gilbert. This is your moment and you both clearly deserve it. Welcome to the queer club, we're stoked to have you.
