I remember doing Pride in Dumfries in 2018 & 2019 and watching the school kids rushing excitedly from one area to another. Absolutely unheard of when, like you, I was at school in the 1950s & 60s.
So very much has changed - at least for us here in Scotland and in the UK.
And I also remember when there was no LGBT+ community, and what it was like to be attracted to other men when I didn't even have the language to articulate my own inner turmoil.
But how blest we are to be where we are now, and to have lived to see the freedoms that today's young people enjoy!
Beautiful Jo. Your writings have been a loving companion with me over the past three months while writing a body of new new material. Such inspiration. Thank you. Always. X
Thank you, dear DPJ. I'm so glad. Can't wait to hear your new music. Where are you just now? I'm going to be made a saint next week, and if you're here I'll invite you! xxxx
How wonderful Jo!
