A fresh depth of generosity & beauty converged in what might be termed "palatable" within/surrounding this writing. (I definitely dissociated a few words into "Dragon Dreaming Dark." Dear god.)
You've accessed something so powerful, so knowing, so all-present giving/timelessly gorgeous here, Dare, and thank heavens you stayed with the intensity to deliver it.
Dare, you are - without fail - richer in the revisit (which will be assuredly true after you've walked on). I've returned to this for support in understanding this terrifying (to me, at least) "I'm With Her" phenomenon. Immensely helpful: "When i speak of whiteness it is not really about the color of our skin, though that is connected. No, it is more about a kind of willingness to side with the oppressor in order to benefit and/or survive the genocidal massacring that colonialism entails. To benefit from outsourcing burdens onto other people in ways that are cruel and unusual, all in the pursuit of some individualistic self-absorbed story of being a victim."

thanks adam. also why i harp on pain, fear and hunger being important to investigate and transform. otherwise, we get "girl boss imperialism".
Thank you for this beautifully provocative Wood Dragon wisdom!
