Dear Terrence,

These are the things I would have wanted you to know about me. Hope to see you again soon!

No one can carry someone else’s life. Even between a parent and child, between brothers and sisters.

Fear comes from the distrust of yourself and the anxiety about the unknown. If you don’t want the fear to take over you, you must trust yourself.

Dear Terrence, This journey is nearing its end. I will be off to a new journey. I will discover a new unknown. I am scared AF but there's no way around it. I just have to be perceptive and keep an open mind. I am looking forward to new experiences and getting ready for new challenges. Love, Pam

Dear Terrence, It's 28 March 2017 and it's a good day. I shared my new blog to a few of my closest friends. I will be hanging out there more often now for myself. It won't be about you anymore. I also went to get my US visa and this interview at the consulate is one for the books. Cheers! Love, Pam

Dear Terrence,

I haven’t written a letter to you for a very long time. I was so busy telling you stories through photographs.

Everything has been well with me. I achieved my goal and am now a resident in Canada. After all the struggles and doubts. I am at this point in my life that I have so much to lose.

I hope all is well with you, wherever yoh may be.

Love,

Pamela

“I call them clobber verses. There are six of them. They’re the verses that get used to hammer gay people. The funny thing is that I never felt pressured by God himself. Only his followers. But I desperately wanted God to change me. I didn’t want to be part of a group with so much shame attached to it. So I started praying in my twenties for God to make me straight. If I could have taken a pill, I would have. I joined the ministry. I got married. I told my wife that I’d had experiences with men, but I convinced both of us that I could choose to be different. I wanted to be normal. I wanted kids. I thought it was just a matter of commitment. I even tried to take reparative therapy classes—just to show her I was serious. They tried to teach me that homosexuality wasn’t real. They said that I’d just had an overbearing mother. But I couldn’t change. I kept slipping up. I couldn’t give my wife what she needed. My marriage ended. I had tried so hard but nothing worked. I got so angry with God for not keeping up his end of the bargain. But after some time, I finally realized why he wouldn’t change me. He never felt like he needed to.”
