Fallen Trees

January 31, 2023February 2, 2023 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

Got new sneakers a bit dirty in the mud. I used to freak out when new sneakers got dirty. But they are made to be used and I go on nature walks regularly so it was inevitable. Looking at fallen trees, the messiness of this undomesticated nature in the park. There was this sense of … Continue reading Fallen Trees

Marginalized Musings

January 24, 2023 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

I am committed to getting a new notebook tomorrow. I know, saying big statements like this can be daunting, LOL. Behavior change is hard. But seriously, I’m getting a new notebook. I’ve used up all the spare pages of the three I’ve been frequenting (they started out as different topics but then I just starting … Continue reading Marginalized Musings

There for One Another

January 7, 2023January 7, 2023 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

I once learned that in heaven, we are all feeding each other. Like, our arms are intertwined and I have a spoon in my hand feeding someone next to me and someone on my other side is feeding me. It’s this image/lesson of the opposite of being self-serving. It’s this interdependence. This watching out for … Continue reading There for One Another

UnDo Date

December 2, 2022December 2, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

I’m grateful my daughter wasn’t born on her due date. Because now that date can be a day for me to remember the anticipation and preparation of bringing a new life into the world. The world is pregnant with possibility. We are constantly rebirthing ourselves. And like labor (though quite different!), this process can take … Continue reading UnDo Date

25th Anniversary of…

November 28, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

My bat mitzvah! My entrance into womanhood. I was searching for the words to capture how I so deeply connect with my inner 12-year-old self—that pure, innocent girl who had not yet explored the sexual sphere, which would end up wreaking havoc on her emotional life. How to say that? How to capture it? Am … Continue reading 25th Anniversary of…

Let Them Live

November 27, 2022November 25, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

If we cannot make space for those whose lives look different from ours. If we cannot support the artists who bleed daily their emotions and know not how to survive but by producing the products of their soul. If we force the ones we love to fit into cookie cutter molds. But it won’t sustain … Continue reading Let Them Live

November 25, 2022November 28, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

Hi! I hope you have had a good Thanksgiving. (Weekend still going!) Holidays can have a slew of emotions around them when gathering with family. I am very fortunate in that this year my Thanksgiving was pure joy! Honestly, every time I gather with family on Thanksgiving it’s a happy time, but this year was … Continue reading Thankitude!

Happy 11-11-22

November 11, 2022November 11, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ 2 Comments

Not only is it 11-11. But 11+11= 22. The fact that this week is culminating on 11/11 is meaningful to me cuz this has been a week of self-discovery. Ironically it was through declining opportunities (both personal and professional) that I felt validated in who I am. Opportunities that a greener, less experienced version of … Continue reading Happy 11-11-22
