Ms. Que Banh#ThankYou for the lovely Winter Solstice postcard @inherentlee ❤️😊
One of my fave #DogBreeds is the #GreatPyrenees. They're amazing #GuardianDogs on farms! My friend, Morgan & her husband Ron, have 5 of them on their family farm in Mill Bay.
#ThrowbackThursday to my visit to their farm in 2021. Morgan & I have been friends for decades.

My beloved kindred companion knows that my heart is like a marshmallow, once I feel someone is truly safe, respects me, spends a lot of time getting to know who I am/what makes me tick/what irks me & isn't afraid of open, honest communication. He knows my exterior is tough/rough because of all the traumas I've experienced & overcome before him & due to that, have a very hard time trusting men in general. He was gentle & patient, taking months to get to know me better. My companion understood my big need to slowly build up a solid foundation of friendship, first. He worked really hard to gain my trust & I notice who puts in those efforts.
I don't date anyone, very easily. Some people thought I was a hard ass/cold bitch because I refused to date a lot of guys while single for years & had opted to be patient instead. I never felt the genuine, natural chemistry connections with other men. I chose my companion, because he is a real treasure of a human being & is worth my extra time & efforts 💗 This man is gold to me, flaws n all.

This is the first time I have ever had a fellow #AuDHD as a kindred companion & it feels amazing. The mutual understanding & spiritual bond we share has brightened up both of our lives. I have never felt this level of naturally flowing, deeply profound, intimate connection with anyone else before.
I treasure this unexpected, sacred blessing. I am immensely grateful 🙌 💞

Cara, me, Souie & Cassidy. Ojistoh was on her period & couldn't join us in hottub but sat right beside us by the fire & we all had long conversations around decolonization issues. We chatted about possibilities & solutions for some ongoing colonialism issues.

Cara, my new Taiwanese friend, chatting with Souie, by the fire. Bridging cultural & generational arenas by simply having genuine, heartful conversations in mutually safe space.
I don't just like to talk about bridging across cultures & generations - I'm always actively trying to create opportunities for that to happen by organizing small circle gatherings.

2020.
Secret lake #friends fun day with Gisele & Lyrica ❤️
We've been friends for 20 years. I met Lyrica through my past para-equestrian training - she was a volunteer at VRDA. I met Gisele through Lyrica; we got on well from first meeting.
PhoenixSerenity2020. #GirlGang nature hike & picnic day at #MackenzieBight beach in #GowllandTodPark in #HighlandsBC #WsanecTerritory.

Backyard picnic reunion & mega catch-up, here, with my two friends, Raven & Marco, soon 💗
Wonderful humans. I care about both of them. We are all local POC environmental/eco justice & social justice/human rights activists - we also work with some international movements & activists, from Global South regions.

I put my purple hat & my sunglasses on Mom & Gina. Also, put my little alien figurine & mini Baby Yoda with them for some fun photos. I'm a bit of a goofball 😂 I enjoy folks who play along with me ❤
