For a while I have tried to find a thread I had started when I joined the forum that could be a "home" thread for me.
Being busy about the forum has been a coping style, where I can acknowledge all my different life experiences that had been silenced. Possibly do some good and prevent things from getting worse. Like the little boy with the finger in the dyke.

Proud of you @Appleblossom
Thankyou for sharing your reflections & truths.
How is this for a 'hard truth'
the times we yearn for confirmation from outside of ourselves is the the time we actually need it least
I don't like it!

Do not think this style fits on the Everything Music thread ...
Yes we can all aspire to be whole souls, but they do say no man or woman is an island.
I am moulded to be adaptive rather than push my own schtick though I do have my likes ...
How are you?

That was some trip that you had..
Visually, musically, aesthetically..
Then there were the people reacquainting with...
New people to meet...
People with strong opinions...
People on a mission with their food musts..
Sensitivities
enjoyment
laughter
So much to savour ....
a head spin at the same time a trip to always remember..
So good for you to experience so much.
I think that you will feel inspired for some time...
Enjoy

@Sophia1 I think the food stuff was important as it effects my grandson, and my access to him, and is part of his xenophobic mother's outlook. I see her as overprivileged and controlling. At least I got to have a balanced moment where someone who eats the food later in life by choice realises there is often an added social element. For me it was early and restricted by economics. Food choices very restricted going back 2 generations.
