Before You Say “religion”...

just a handy little info chart on the spectrums of sexuality.

im not crying you are crying!

The golem is too small - but the children who make him, who hand him to their baby siblings to hold who have shaped him with small hands - they make a friend. From the very first children of exile, little ones yearning for their home - they wished for a friend - these small babies - toddlers with halting steps and little tiny children. And so he is shaped to them - to be held.

From all soils but home, he is reshaped - small hands and prayers and hopes - little wishes along with them - from Shiraz to London to Aksum to those that remain in Yerushaláyim - children add buttons, beads, colours and love - the warmth of small hands no matter what happens.

The Golem wishes he was large, that he could protect them - but he can be with them, all the children who are lost to an endless ancient hate - a hand to hold at the end, perhaps a shield from pain.

He lives in a bright place - filled with paints, with colour and toys and he will protect it always and always - though he is very small, he can protect this place now, this little haven and the little ones who pass through the doors.

tbh this has been my experience trying to observe shabbat more traditionally so far lmao. we tear so many things!! (toilet paper & packaging are the biggest ones...)

regardless, has been quite fulfilling thus far :D

gender and religion...

tell me about the ways your religious or spiritual identity is connected to your gender!! do you have seperate religious and secular genders? is your gender represented through scripture? do you share a gender with an important figure in your spiritual tradition? feel free to share! :D
