Glide Memorial Church

      I walk in and find my seat. I smooth my skirt and look up to smile at my neighbors  They smile back and ask how I'm doing. "Great, thanks for asking," I already feel at home. The ushers proudly wear buttons with rainbow peace signs.
        This is Glide, the home for many who don't have one and donors alike. All with the same mission: To live life to the fullest. Glide is a church, shelter, and much more. http://www.glide.org/pages/powered-by-love
So easy to help there, so easy to make friends there too. If you live in the Bay Area, to his is an amazing experience and you MUST go!!!
          learned that who you are is not what you do, or what others say you are, or anything superficial.
It was very enlightening and I felt a power there, a love for life. Amazing. Volunteer and help a worthy cause then learn something about yourself you never knew before. Win Win. Also, the music ahhhhhh, like a breath of fresh air. It will be a day you remember forever and ever and hopefully you'll do it again.
      I went to Glide with my temple (I'm Jewish) and even though its a church it doesn't mean that its only welcoming to Christians. Nope. Only once they mentioned Jesus  and even said Shalom, Namasta, and Peace before the celebration. This inclusive community has inspired many with their powerful sermons, and helped keep many out of poverty.
       Oh ya, you read correctly a celebration. To celebrate you. yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa join the celebration and experience Glide.

Taron Hensley is a Pedophile.

Nine months later I emerge with the hopes of being vaccinated soon. FUcking hell. What a trip. This pandemic is going to require a lot of processing in the future but for now, I want to share and record some things I am very proud that I accomplished over this period of time. I was able to help start and run a campaign to eventually get my high school drama teacher who spread the rumor that I called the cops at a cast party which ruined my social life at that school while stalking me and my friends and constantly trying to get me in compromising and damn disgusting and gross situations. His charm to his superiors and the gaslighting and abuse of students has been heavily weighing on me in a way I have yet to fully deal with. I spoke out in high school and was silenced, threatened, and made to feel unwelcome. Yet the internet and living in a whole separate continent does wonders for confidence. I helped create a petition, gathered testimonies, and launched this campaign with my friends

Rainy Night Writing

There is something quite different about writing when it is raining outside than when it isn't. I despise my frozen toes and fingers, yet I love drinking chocolate almond milk with banana bread. It seems almost enchanting, like creativity is plopping on your rooftop. Writing in the rain, so odd. Writing in the rain It is like laughing during a thunder cloud, in perfect harmony with nature, rhyming and paralleling the weather, writing in the rain, creativity pours from you, as you hear the pitter patter, you wonder where the drops will all go, writing in the rain, a clean slate to begin again, a downpour of ideas, soon to come again, I love writing in the rain.
