21 july,
2003 dear
visitor, i have not done a major update of
this site in several months now, so there may be broken links and
out-of-date information. i apologize. i have been busy with work
as the director of the lunenburg family resource centre, with my
volunteering, and trying to take some time for myself. with the
many positive changes happening in canada, (ie: recognition of
same-sex relationships & the decriminalization of medical
marijuana), it has been hard to keep au courant with the day to
day changes in canadian society.this
homepage has grown to over 600 pages since i started it in late
'96 and 70,000 visitors (which i never expected!) when I started
it, i was having a 'bad patch' in my life and i found learning
and creating with html, well, sort of therapeutic. it has had
many changes and face-lifts, as i have had many changes. i've
lost most of my interest in maintaining it. it's more work than
fun to me at this point in my life. maybe during the long, dark
nights of our nova scotia winter, i'll get back to it, but i feel
that i need to spend my time with other interests. also, i've
been asked to lead a medical mission for rotary international in
2004 to nigeria and cameroon which takes a helluva lot of
organization.i have
taken this summer off and ariel, my faithful canine companion and
i are spending most of it at the family cottage on the
northumberland strait. there are some pictures i've taken this
july of 'cottage country' in my webpages
album. also there, are several art
works i've recently completed. and something i have wanted to do
for years is to write something more than magazine articles: i
have been working on is a novel about a gay man sent to
sachsenhausen concentration camp and i now have 100+ pages
completed that i'm satisfied with. enjoy
your visit, and if you have any comments, questions, kudos or
brickbats, please sign the guestbook or email me.peace and
light terry

because....... |
gay men and lesbians are discriminated against in housing and employment AND because how we act is more important than who we are AND if we get harassed it's our problem AND if we get attacked we provoked it AND if we raise our voices we're flaunting ourselves AND if we enjoy sex we're perverts AND if we have AIDS we deserve it AND if we march with pride we're recruiting children AND if we want or have children we're unfit parents AND if we stand up for our rights we're overstepping our boundaries AND because we are forced constantly to question our own worth as human beings AND if we don't have a relationship with someone of the opposite sex we haven't given it a chance AND if we have a relationship with someone of the same sex it is not recognized AND we are told our love is not "real" AND if we come out of the closet we're just going through a phase AND because lesbian and gay history is virtually absent from literature AND because homophobia is sanctioned by the courts AND....for lots and lots of other reasons, |
i am a part of the lesbian and gay civil rights movement |
