Weekly Photo Challenge: Serenity

Serenity2013 was a special year for the LGBTQ community, when DOMA fell just a matter of days before Pride weekend. At the Pride parade, I moved my way up through the sidelines of the uproariously celebratory route and ended up next to an enthusiastic little family. During a lull between marching parade groups, one of the parents smiled at their family, then so tenderly rested backward with closed eyes. Serenity.

What is Real?

Stripes“By the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don’t matter at all, because once you are Real you can’t be ugly, except to people who don’t understand.”
