GENEVIEVE'S GEMS

 

CHRISTOPHER STREET PIER

 

I come here a few times in the summer. This is one of few places I can completely be myself.

TRANSITION IS ONGOING

I believe transition is an ongoing process. It's emotional and spiritual to me because life circumstances have dictated this. Iiffe doesn't stand still, so I move along where it takes me. 

After I came out as trans, I posted 'Better late than never." I have focused on aloneness in my writings. I'm not lonely; I just enjoy being by myself. As a septugenarian, passing my wisdom to younger folks is a way of helping them in their journey. 

I am writing on topics such as sex, the desire to leave everything behind, solitude, spirituality, and resilience. I am compelled to challenge much of the conventional views about these topics.   

SECOND FAVORITE

 

This was my second favorite spot in my youth.  The streets were so crowded that you shuffled along. There were restaurants, headshops, theaters, music venues, and headphones, excitement. Friday nights and Saturdays were my time to let loose. I wasn't crazy; I just needed to have the freedom to be different without having to conform to societal moms which could be stifling at times.

WAVERLY DINER

This diner is a staple in Greenwich Village. My wife and I have dined here many times. One of my favorite places to eat.

STOMPING GROUND

This is McDougall and Minetta Streets in Greenwih Village, a place I hung out in my youth. Friday nights and Saturday were my times to be absorbed in the bohemian vibe. There were shops, restaurants, clubs, bars, and music. 

It's still vibrant and lively I still hang out bere though not as much. I keep getting called back to a place that opened my eyes to a unique part of New York life.
