Keeping on keeping on
02Jul10
Well, after a few days of what felt like hell; I’m out the other side and feeling positive again. Ok, so the same things still happen; but I’m now able to deal with them again. Thing is – the situation is still the same; I’m just strong again. Weird, but true.
Tomorrow is London Pride, and I’m going to walk in that and then go have some drinks with friends. I’m going to be in London for a day at least, and not worry about what people think about me. Tomorrow is *my* day to be myself and shun all of the hate and ignorance I face every other day of the year. Hopefully people will be positive and supportive of each other, but even in marginalised groups; there are still people that don’t ‘get it’ and are rude to others.

Hi,
I’m not sure what exactly to say here. I’m really glad you’re feeling somewhat better. I’m really sorry it sucked.
We’ve never met, I don’t imagine we ever will and I’m not sure we’d know it if we did. I wanted to let you know that some of the things you have written over the past few months have really stayed in my mind as a far better way of expressing something I’ve been trying to explain than anything I’d come up with. And I was really glad to find someone else putting thoughts into words.
I’m not arrogant enough to think my being grateful to you can make things magically better. But if knowing that you made things easier for me helps, then it’s certainly true. And if it doesn’t, then I’m still grateful and still want to say thankyou and let you know that I hope life and the world treat you a little better.
Thank you xx
