What Do You Miss?

Missing family- the brother and sister I lost and my parents. I accept that both my parents had a pretty good stretch, but my sister and brother did not and they were the two siblings I was closest to. I am family oriented, a homebody too- I like more intimate and small gatherings of friends and the family I used to have. Having a BBQ, listening to what the people I care about are experiencing, feeling human closeness. Taking walks and talking with each other.

Although, I love the Bay Area, it is a busy and noisey place and I do miss the country surroundings I shared so many years with family and long time friends with and the two women in my life that I shared love with. I do miss being with a partner and have no problem saying so. I'm relational, always have been. Yet, need time to myself.

I find this area to be superficial in many ways- people just passing by... Sure it is great to be in a place where there are many queers and queer organizations as well as all of the arts I enjoy. But, I miss country hospitality and warmth and a slower pace.
