Today I gave a thing and I received a thing, and my heart is full due to both.
I was able to gift my very vintage and well loved skirt that I wore to my original prom to a lovely two spirit student I have had the privilege of getting to know this year. Seeing the joy on their face and watching them spin around and marvel at the understated sparkle was the perfect way to pass an item on that gave me such joy.
I also was very very unexpectedly Blanketed for my volunteer work this year. I was floored, and am holding this honour so close to my heart. [Context: First Nations Blanketing Ceremony, similar idea link found here: https://students.dartmouth.edu/nap/news/2022/06/blanketing-ceremony-2022
