All I can say

When we accept endings we release ourselves from their power.

Tonight was the likely end of a monthly event that I held very dear to my heart. A crucial tool on helping me develop myself, my performance, and who it is that I'd always like to reach.

My life has been full of endings lately... But with them have come bright new beginnings. I'll miss queer fight night, but I'll never forget it. I'm beyond it now. Killing the past is our way forward.

Life is full of things I'll see again. Loose ends holding it together like the ratchet straps that bind my own bed. Whenever they come back around I know I'll be a changed woman. Full of growth. There are things I know I'll experience again, held tightly to my heart like my stuffed animals. they'll find me right where they left me, shining broader and brighter.

Here's to the future, to things never being the same, but always finding ourselves somewhere better. All roads lead home.
