Category: The Gypsy Blogs

A series of blogs published in 2011 which chart my time with my first love (parts 1 to 6) following onto Part 7, where I concentrate on his published memoirs and the fallacy that is the Gypsy Boy and ‘his’ story of life on the run.

He made it my business when he took elements of my life as his own. When he wrote about me and my relationship with him in his book, did he expect that I would stay silent? Perhaps my voice is a scream in a hurricane, ineffectual and lost, but as long as I know the truth is sitting here, I am appeased.

I have followed truth above all else all of my life and it leads to contentment of the soul.

“All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.” – Arthur Schopenhauer.
