A few months ago I decided to write my memoirs, a project I knew was going to bring me closer to an amazing turning point in my life. From the moment I wrote the first phrase I was sure the book was the tool that was going to help me free myself from things I was carrying within me for a long time. Things that were too heavy for me to keep inside. Writing this account of my life, I got very close to my truth. And thisis something worth celebrating.
For many years, there has been only one place where I am in touch with my emotions fearlessly and that's the stage. Being on stage fills my soul in many ways, almost completely. It's my vice. The music, the lights and the roar of the audience are elements that make me feel capable of anything. This rush of adrenaline is incredibly addictive. I don't ever want to stop feeling these emotions. But it is serenity that brings me to where I'm at right now. An amazing emotional place of comprehension, reflection and enlightenment. At this moment I'm feeling the same freedom I usually feel only on stage, without a doubt, I need to share.
Many people told me: "Ricky it's not important", "it's not worth it", "all the years you've worked and everything you've built will collapse", "many people in the world are not ready to accept your truth, your reality, your nature". Because all this advice came from people who I love dearly, I decided to move on with my life not sharing with the world my entire truth. Allowing myself to be seduced by fear and insecurity became a self-fulfilling prophecy of sabotage. Today I take full responsibility for my decisions and my actions.
If someone asked me today, "Ricky, what are you afraid of?" I would answer "the blood that runs through the streets of countries at war...child slavery, terrorism...the cynicism of some people in positions of power, the misinterpretation of faith." But fear of my truth? Not at all! On the contrary, It fills me with strength and courage. This is just what I need especially now that I am the father of two beautiful boys that are so full of light and who with their outlook teach me new things every day. To keep living as I did up until today would be to indirectly diminish the glow that my kids where born with. Enough is enough. This has to change. This was not supposed to happen 5 or 10 years ago, it is supposed to happen now. Today is my day, this is my time, and this is my moment.
These years in silence and reflection made me stronger and reminded me that acceptance has to come from within and that this kind of truth gives me the power to conquer emotions I didn't even know existed.
What will happen from now on? It doesn't matter. I can only focus on what's happening to me in this moment. The word "happiness" takes on a new meaning for me as of today. It has been a very intense process. Every word that I write in this letter is born out of love, acceptance, detachment and real contentment. Writing this is a solid step towards my inner peace and vital part of my evolution.
I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man. I am very blessed to be who I am.

An entertainer has come out of the closet? He’s heterosexual?
It’s not like the closet door was actually SHUT.
What a load of tripe!
What is so tremendously sad is what a tragedy this is for his two young male babies who had no choice but to be forced into his bizarre and degenerate lifestyle. In my opinion, it’s a crime for a male adult who sexually fetishizes the fecal waste canal of other males to then act as a role model and ‘father’ figure for two male infants. Why oh why do homosexual militants like Ricky force young children into the middle of a chosen perverted lifestyle? How will he explain a series of homosexual partners, adult diapers, fecal associated STDs, and even the risk of AIDS?
“Heck, I heard he was gay more than 10 years ago. Did he think no one knew...”
I was going to say the same thing, except I only use the word “gay” when I mean festive or happy. Maybe he’s just hanging out a sign or trying to fill the seats at his next concert.
“The little boys in Menudo were picked, groomed and seduced into gay orgies by some real perverts, who went on to make millions.”
Haven’t studies shown time and again that young boys who have been molested by homosexual pedophiles quite often go on to offend themselves? If so, I pray for the safety of the babies Ricky purchased.
“YAAAAAAWWWWWWNNNNNN! Another self absorbed declining star seeks attention. I just don’t care. Now on to something political.”
You noticed that too. Nothing but narcissism run amok..I, me, my, I,I,I, me, me, me.
Ah, Ricky...livin’ la vida cornhole.
Funny...just before reading this, I was listening to the Spanglish version of “Cup of Life”. Eerie.
LLS
And we should care one way or the other because???
“Ah, Ricky...livin’ la vida cornhole.”
LOL, more like ‘Livin’ la H.I.Vida’.
Good point.
Does Ricky know that “Chaz” Bono is avilable?
“Maybe he’s just hanging out a sign or trying to fill the seats at his next concert.”
I imagine his next step is Dancing with the Stars...
How blessed will you feel after becoming deathly ill from AIDS?
That commercial is extremely annoying.I want to pistol-whip that guy!
Adult diapers? I’m assuming that frequent anal sex can make it difficult,if not impossible,to hold a bowel movement.Incontinence is the correct word,right?
Next thing you know, someone's going to say that Liberace was gay!!
I read in one of the online tabloids Rickey likes to be the “female”.
LOL!
