Hold on to what is good even if it is a handful of earth.
Hold on to what you believe even if it is a tree which stands by itself.
Hold on to what you must do even if it is a long way from here.
Hold on to life even when it is easier letting go.
Hold on to my hand even when I have gone away from you.

Please note that this is a DIARY, ie my subjective feelings, hearsay, suppositions, and outpourings of ranting of the moment. It does not represent objective news, the whole of what I think of a topic or someone, or even a thought-out representation of any of the above. Keep that in mind. Thanks. * Here is a Diary Etiquette Read Me.
Thank God there is FINALLY Het Pride
Hmmm
Here is a fascinating rundown on which Canadian cities were able to get "Gay Pride Day"s or celebrations declared, and which were refused and for what reasons.
And then there is Yellowknife, where City Council has declared "Heterosexual Pride Day" to be celebrated the day before Gay Pride Day. uhhuh. Let's see. Young people commit suicide and are banished from their families when they are afraid of being heterosexual. People lose their jobs and are slandered when they are found to be heterosexual. People are afraid to hold hands in public with their heterosexual partners, are refused service in bars and restaurants if they display affection, and told that they are sinful and should not be allowed near children. Heterosexuality shouldn't even be KNOWN to innocent children until they are grown. Heterosexuals are accused of everything from being communist sympathisers, unfit to defend their countries, to 9/11. New laws and ammendments are being written into State and country constitutions to make sure heterosexuals cannot form a legal partnership with their lovers, nor get custody of children. Straight, husband, wife, and hetero are commonly used words on schoolgrounds and streets around the world to put people down, and even things that aren't seen as desireable. Most famous heterosexuals hid their tendencies and posed as gay, so that the achievements of heterosexuals are often denied or glossed over in history.
Yup. I am so glad that there is now a Heterosexual Pride Day so that heterosexuals can come out of the closet, publicly declare they are not ashamed to be attracted to their girlfriends and wives, husbands and boyfriends. So that the public can see that heterosexuals are real people, who have contributed to society. Cuz we so often forget that heterosexuals are just like you and me, just a little different, and they deserve tolerance and recognition too.
cheers.
