learning to love my period :-)

One of my favorite memories is sleeping under a tarp tied between some trees two summers ago. i was on the ground squished between my friends and i could hear all the night forest noises. i think there’s something about menstruation and the natural cycle that makes me feel one with nature and myself and the forest like some kind of magical earth goddess or something. i was looking up at the stars and i could tell that i was bleeding and cramping, but i had this feeling of beauty and peace, thinking about how awesome bodies are for how they work! :-)
