Caming my Life! Thoughts and Stories from a Queer Elder Caming My Life Caming is the metal banding that joins panels of glass into a unique design.
Frank Asher.
I hope to reveal its light and its darker corners and perhaps, affirm for me (and the reader) the blessings and the beauty of what is here right now for all of us.
My family members and friends may not know my inner life.
Caming it, if you will. (The beautiful, the mundane and down right primal.) Bringing them together to honor and on some level acknowledge my life.
These are the pieces of glass that are me.
This is simply a collection of moments from my life.
When light hits glass, beauty reflects outward.
Thoughts of death? They let light in.
Being confronted with non-existence, allowed me to fully live.
It is a work in progress and continues to call out to light so it can reflect its creator.
This is the pane scape of me, a never finished Life! A reflection of color, light and various elements.
These are the camings connecting all of the beautiful and not so beautiful aspects of the stained glass that is me.
My experiences, my connections, my inner Thoughts are how I got here now.
When I first heard this word I loved the image of broken or cut pieces of glass being brought together with metal to create a stained glass window.
