The Pandemic made us all feel lost. I tried to find myself.

It all started with a suggestion

A man I met on grindr saw the ladder that led to the roof and asked “Can we go onto the roof?” The thought never crossed my mind before. “Naked?” I couldn’t muster an argument in opposition. Once on the roof, I realized I had found a place where I could explore my feelings about who I am, where I am and what I am in the wake of loss and grief. The man never stripped naked on the roof “what if someone sees us?” But I did, I felt the need to be seen.
