Pride Month 2024

As the vibrant hues of the rainbow unfurl across the skies this June, we come together to celebrate Pride Month 2024. It’s a time to honor the diversity and resilience of the LGBTQ+ community, to remember the struggles and triumphs that have paved the way for equality. We stand in solidarity, embracing love in all its forms, and acknowledging that every heart beats the same.

This month, let’s raise our voices for those who still fight for acceptance, let’s march for the future we believe in, and let’s dance to the rhythm of unity and freedom. From the echoes of history to the whispers of hope, Pride Month is a testament to the indomitable spirit of love and the ongoing journey towards a world where everyone can live authentically. Here’s to love, in every color of the spectrum—loud, proud, and unapologetically ourselves. Happy Pride Month 2024!

(जैसे ही इस जून में आसमान में इंद्रधनुष की जीवंत छटाएं दिखाई देंगी, हम गौरव माह 2024 का जश्न मनाने के लिए एक साथ आए हैं। यह एलजीबीटीक्यू समुदाय की विविधता और लचीलेपन का सम्मान करने, उन संघर्षों और जीत को याद करने का समय है, जिन्होंने समानता का मार्ग प्रशस्त किया है। . हम एकजुटता से खड़े हैं, प्यार को उसके सभी रूपों में अपनाते हैं, और स्वीकार करते हैं कि हर दिल एक जैसा धड़कता है। इस महीने, आइए उन लोगों के लिए अपनी आवाज उठाएं जो अभी भी स्वीकृति के लिए लड़ते हैं, आइए उस भविष्य के लिए मार्च करें जिसमें हम विश्वास करते हैं, और आइए उस पर नृत्य करें एकता और स्वतंत्रता की लय. इतिहास की गूँज से लेकर आशा की फुसफुसाहट तक, प्राइड मंथ प्रेम की अदम्य भावना और एक ऐसी दुनिया की ओर चल रही यात्रा का प्रमाण है जहाँ हर कोई प्रामाणिक रूप से रह सकता है। यहाँ प्रेम है, स्पेक्ट्रम के हर रंग में – ज़ोर से, गर्व से, और क्षमाप्रार्थी रूप से स्वयं से। हैप्पी प्राइड मंथ 2024!)

(Ngayong Hunyo, habang ang makukulay na bahaghari ay unti-unting lumalaganap sa kalangitan, tayo ay nagkakaisa upang ipagdiwang ang Pride Month 2024. Ito ay panahon upang parangalan ang pagkakaiba-iba at katatagan ng komunidad ng LGBTQ+, at alalahanin ang mga pakikibaka at tagumpay na nagbukas ng daan para sa pagkakapantay-pantay. Tayo ay nagkakaisa, yakapin ang pag-ibig sa lahat ng anyo nito, at kilalanin na ang bawat puso ay tumitibok ng pareho.

Ngayong buwan, itaas natin ang ating mga boses para sa mga patuloy na lumalaban para sa pagtanggap, magmartsa tayo para sa kinabukasan na ating pinaniniwalaan, at sumayaw tayo sa ritmo ng pagkakaisa at kalayaan. Mula sa alingawngaw ng kasaysayan hanggang sa bulong ng pag-asa, ang Pride Month ay patunay sa hindi matitinag na espiritu ng pag-ibig at patuloy na paglalakbay patungo sa isang mundo kung saan ang lahat ay maaaring mabuhay nang tunay. Ito’y para sa pag-ibig, sa bawat kulay ng spectrum—malakas, mayabang, at walang paghingi ng tawad sa ating sarili. Maligayang Pride Month 2024!)

(यस जुनमा, जति इन्द्रेणीका रंगीन रंगहरू आकाशमा फैलिरहेका छन्, हामी सबै मिलेर प्राइड महिना २०२४ को उत्सव मनाउँछौं। यो LGBTQ+ समुदायको विविधता र लचिलापनलाई सम्मान गर्ने र उनीहरूका संघर्ष र विजयहरूलाई सम्झने समय हो, जसले समानताको बाटो तयार पारेका छन्। हामी एकतामा उभिएको छौं, सबै प्रकारको प्रेमलाई अंगाल्दै, र यो स्वीकार गर्दै कि हरेक मुटु उस्तै धड्कन्छ।

यस महिना, आउनुहोस् हामी स्वीकृतिको लागि अझै लडिरहेकाहरूको लागि हाम्रो आवाज उठाऔं, आउनुहोस् हामी त्यो भविष्यको लागि मार्च गरौं जसमा हामी विश्वास गर्दछौं, र आउनुहोस् हामी एकता र स्वतन्त्रताको तालमा नाचौं। इतिहासका प्रतिध्वनिहरूदेखि आशाका सुस्केराहरूसम्म, प्राइड महिना प्रेमको अदम्य आत्माको र खुलेर बाँच्न सक्ने संसारतिरको जारी यात्राको साक्षी हो। यहाँ प्रेमको लागि हो, स्पेक्ट्रमको हरेक रंगमा—शक्तिशाली, गर्वित, र निर्द्वन्द्व हामी आफैं। प्राइड महिना २०२४ को शुभकामना!)
