Rainbows. Romance. Reunions.
After a full weekend of adventuress and love, a fresh wave of joyful blessedness lingers.
Seeing a best friend, who knows your history, understands you in your simplest form, and reminds you of who you are is like being in an emotional paradise. An effortless love and adoration of energy connects between the two of you and you read each other’s minds. Smiles say everything. Eyes catch each other’s innocence from when you first met.
You are back to being 9, but with a newfound maturity of experiences, love, journeys.
New stories to share, heartbreaks to cure, and catching up as if no time has passed take paramount importance. It has been years since we’ve seen each other, but as the true test of best friends go; it feels as if no time has passed.
Seeing one my chosen family members gave me a zap back to my past, present and future. She reminded me of who I was, who I am and who I want to be.
We danced into the wee hours of the night, talked for three days nonstop and had a series of firsts together.
Celebrating NYC pride for the first time was all the more special by having this gorgeous creature with me.
Rainbows reminded me of joy, hope, love and how far the gay community has come. Contagious smiles lit the streets, men held men hands, women kissed women and people of all sexualities came together. Respect. Understanding. Pride.
I shared many special moments throughout this weekend that I will remember forever. Connections of old and new, physically and metaphorically, tangible and spiritually. Dreams for a better tomorrow.
A weekend as sweet as this was not achieved by coincidence. This was the universe gifting me gloriousness. I say thank you by keeping a smile on my face, love in my heart, and graciousness in my soul.
Remember to carry these things with you. These invaluable yet free things will guide your way to a blissfulness that is simply spectacular.
