  • Noticing 2 special hearts. 

    This weekend at The Fort Lauderdale Stonewall Festival I noticed Alex and Gaby. Alex is a trans male and Gaby is his girlfriend. I interviewed Gaby asking her questions like “What, if any labels do you prefer”. “Are labels important to you?” “What fears do you have surrounding your relationship?” “How do you feel about…

  • Happy, like anything else it takes practice to be good at it.

    “If you think this world as a place intended simply for your happiness, you find it quite intolerable: think of it as a place of training and correction and it’s not so bad” C.S. Lewis I don’t know if your like me, but I’ve spent most of my life trying to figure out happy. I…

Does the cashier at 7Eleven who called me sir…

  • Weak or Wise?

    Notice you’re worth it. I came across a quote this weekend that read: “There’s no trophy at the end for doing everything alone, and you’re not weak for asking for help.
