A new beginning

Everything has changed now.

Imagine for a moment, looking into the crying eyes of your child and telling her that her feelings are entirely fake.  I could never do such a thing, not even in anger.

For now, however, I will have to leave my frustration behind me and, as they say, cowboy the fuck up.  This blog will be part of that.  No-one can censor what I put here, and while they can tighten their grip on her, all it will do is choke her.  Of course they know this, so they can't possibly stop her from reading blogs?

So, change has come.  I won't concede defeat, and I refuse to see it as an end.  This is a new beginning, and I refuse to go away.  The only one with the power to tell me to go away is her, and she has specifically told me to stay. So I stay, any way I can.  This is me staying.

Anyway, this is for you.  You know who you are.  I love you, and I'm right here.
Keep the hope alive.  Hope for a kinder tomorrow.
