The Grandest of Gaucheries
"I didn't want to be a boy, ever, but I was outraged that his height and intelligence were graces for him and gaucheries for me." -Jane Rule


I believe we need more love in the world. We need the courage to live and love wholeheartedly, to be vulnerable and out there, with the belief that those we love will see our beauty and worth and give us the love we deserve. This blog is part of my attempt to live fully, to love generously and courageously.


May this serve as a refuge for anyone else out there feeling like an alien in a foreign land.

“Suggesting that women have abortions for “convenience” diminishes the hard work of women and is beyond insulting. Living my dream is my right. Not having my body hijacked, especially when I am doing everything possible to prevent pregnancy, is my right. I refuse to be told that my dreams are inconvenient and should be sacrificed.”

“If he wants to make a movie, he just starts making the movie. He doesn’t wait for permission or for even the money. He just starts making the movie. And he figures, if I start making the movie, people will start joining along. And that’s how I’ve done everything since then. Just start making it and give it a life.”

If

anna-marshall:

If in the long run
we weep together
hold each other
wipe the other’s mouth

to seal the touch
of spirits separated
by something as necessary
as time,
we will have done enough.
