I have a share I feel inspired to bring here to the whole group. I think being part of this group and participating since its inception has really strengthened me in some ways, specifically in my gay identity. I notice I feel more at ease around gay men than I did before. (Not that I felt uncomfortable before…it’s just like more at ease). I am experiencing some sense of gay belonging in this group that I didn’t before….and honestly, I feel so moved by that that I am getting teary-eyed just writing this. Also, I feel more confident than I ever have in my life, which I believe is independent of this group…but, this container also has been supportive for me to feel included, share myself, and connect with other gay men in a non-instrumentalizing way. I am so grateful. To Frederik. To the group alchemy. To each of you. Thanks for your contributions. With a full heart. Your Gay Brother from Another Mutthha, Noor

Let’s be the light for each other!

Real Growth Beyond Motivation We all know what we should do: - take care of ourselves - stay consistent - set boundaries - communicate better… But real life isn’t always that simple. In this call, we will be talking about: - discipline - self-care - emotional struggles behind the scenes - what actually helps us grow long-term. Who’s joining? ☺️

So I had an incredible experience at work last night. It was my first time closing on a Friday night. And this young gay couple came in, probably early to mid-20s. They are regulars I was told. One boy was in a wheelchair, slightly overweight, comfortably dressed with no care for style, wearing lipstick, which he did not know how to apply, eyeliner, which he did not know how to apply, mismatched earrings and brightly dyed hair, which looked like he simply had rinsed it with iodine. But he owned that look totally and fiercely. The other boy was completely nerdy, small, slight build, curly hair, coke-bottle glasses and buck teeth. An eager outgoing personality and when he smiled all the nitpicky bullshit vanished. And somehow they found each other. I helped them find what they were looking for and had a nice long conversation with them abt queer novels and movies. And I just wanted to hug them both to death! I felt Here are my people, here’s who I belong with. When they left they said We’ll be back next week. And i said I’ll be here. Gay community on a Friday night at a Barnes & Noble. Who knew?
