Café crazed 1st Gen Cuban-American raised in Miami. 62 and starting anew!! Spanglish speaking Mother of 3, Abuela of 6; a human shot of espresso and earnest in my extremism. An adventurer, dancer of life; loving its’ locuras and celebrating the "humanness" of all people. The binding ties of family, being female, getting older and day to day life while hopefully enlightening and entertaining- this is the reason for Babushka and her dance.
♪A BAILAR SE HA DICHO!!♪
Ya estamos en Junio, half a year already. BB running on Cubantime on her posts, but this is a cause and occasion too dear to let go by sin a mention and a hug. Este mes is Pride Month, and if you think Babushka is pasandolo without a post, JU SO FONII!!! Este post is dedicated to all the LGBT amigos del pasado, presente y futuro and a todos who love them.
The Tallahassee PrideFest took place in April, bold y bello, just like the Beautifuls who organized and participated in it. Naturalmente BB was too busy enjoying the festival to take many fotos, pero aqui are some of the highlights.
Feliz that the importance of self care, health in all aspects, was stressed. Kudos to local organizations and government for having booths, especially in a community with so many young adults. Only thing missing was the info in Spanish. Hopefully BB's suggestion on this will be implemented.
Pero of course, el "FanMan" has to be highlighted.
To continue in this vein, let BB add the religious/spiritual tambien. Having attended services where homosexuality was criticized, it brought relief and tears to the ojos to see churches believe and broadcast universal love.
Groovy Spanglish speaking Grandma of 6 who loves life and all its adventures. Motivational while still keeping it real, Babushka shows how all things looked at with gratitude are good, and how to say to la vida- JU SO FONII!!!
Oh wow what an amazing looking event for Pride Month. It seems like everyone is coming together and really celebrating which is just incredible to see as everyone should feel they can be themselves.
It's too bad that they didn't have the info available in Spanish. There are so many Latino people in the LGBT community who could benefit from info about self care, health, and mental health!
What a great event! My girls are going to our local Pride event tomorrow. It probably won't be as big as this one, since we are a small community, but it's nice that we are seeing more and more cities participate.
It's great to see a community come together, even when you don't necessarily believe in the lifestyle. Everyone should feel loved and welcome.
