Unpolished, Raw, and Genuine
A Collaboration with Autistic Ang
I don’t know how to start this message to you, my readers… YOU are why I write, and I want to express my sincere gratitude for your presence.
I do my best to be consistent with my publications - to post every week, but I don’t always succeed.
What’s amazing is how you continue to support me. I know you are there, standing with me. None of you are waiting to see me fail.
Instead, you give me the grace to be unpolished, raw, and genuine with you while remaining true to myself. Thank you!
I trust that you know, when I don’t succeed in meeting my self-imposed deadline to get an article out, it’s in your best interest as much as it is in mine. Sometimes, I need additional time to process my abstract mind before putting it into a logical sequence.
I was delighted to be approached by Autistic Ang a couple of weeks ago, asking if I would be interested in being spotlighted for her readers. So, this week I am taking a brief detour from my regular publication to share with you that collaboration.
These were questions that had me awake until 5 a.m., reflecting, and they gave me insights into myself, how far I have come, and the shadows that still follow me. This is an opportunity to get to know me, as a person, not just as a collection of stories.
Grace Dakini on Writing, Identity, and What We Don't Say Out Loud
March 22 was a milestone. It’s been One Year since my first post on Substack. To you, my dedicated readers, I would love to hear from you, your thoughts on:
How to build this community stronger together, to support each other? Would you be interested in engaging in a chat thread, is one possibility?
Would you like me to write more openly about my fears and/or active wounds or whatever it is that I am still deconditioning and unlearning?
Would you like me to write about my mystical experiences?
It’s been a while since I reminded my readers that I am happy to get your questions. You’re welcome to ask about anything I have written about, if there’s something unclear, or if you’d like me to go deeper into a particular subject, or questions about your human design - ask away!
Again, thank you for sharing this space with me. Thank you for taking the time, your precious time, to read my writing, for seeing me, and not always at my best yet choosing to stick around. Thank you.
