Today we had a "farewell" dinner party for those who were leaving Currie Hall. I had quite a nice time, though I didn't expect to. Today felt surprisingly nice right from the start. Somehow I just felt more comfortable being me, as if I didn't have to put up pretences; but that meant... that I... Continue Reading →
Currie Hall's Good Riddance Dinner

Wind at the Beach

Judgement
Sometimes you do things and you're judged, And not always as justly as you'd hope. Prejudices abound, and only because you Think in ways they cannot comprehend, Dressing and behaving in line with the cocktail That is your history, your biology, your environment. Who can say what's right or wrong? Certainly not they -- they... Continue Reading →
