I thought I’d post this week about a very interesting book I found on holistic eye care titled Enlivening Consciousness.learn more on my author blog: Holistic Eye Care — Enlivening Consciousness— More reasons to #govegan #amreading | Janet Mason, author [https://tealeavesamemoir.wordpress.com/2025/03/30/holistic-eye-care-enlivening-consciousness-more-reasons-to-govegan-amreading/]

This morning, I participated in a Unitarian Universalist service on security, both inner and outer security. In my reflection, I lead a short Buddhist exercise on feeling more secure in side, how my Buddhist skills helped me handle the harassment of my novel THEY, a biblical tale of secret genders (Adelaide Books; New York & Lisbon; 2018), and how compassion is always the healthy choice.read more on my author blog: ”Yay Us!” — Compassion as inner security — a #UU take #amreading #Faithfullylgbt | Janet Mason, author [https://tealeavesamemoir.wordpress.com/2025/03/23/yay-us-compassion-as-inner-security-a-uu-take-amreading-faithfullylgbt/]

As a result of the ongoing harassment of my novel THEY, a biblical tale of secret genders, I have decided to bring you excerpts of THEY on a regular basis. Thinking about the psyche of the harasser, brought to mind my late mother’s saying: “ Twinkle Twinkle Little Star What You Say Is What You Are.”read more on my author blog: The Serpent — a reading from THEY and some thoughts on hate — “twinkle, twinkle little star, what you say is what you are” #amreading #faithfullylgbt | Janet Mason, author [https://tealeavesamemoir.wordpress.com/2025/03/15/the-serpent-a-reading-from-they-and-some-thoughts-on-hate-twinkle-twinkle-little-star-what-you-say-is-what-you-are-amreading-faithfullylgbt/]

dairy cow’s (and her farmer’s) path to freedom, (published in 2024 by Adelaide Books – New York and Lisbon). This piece takes place at the local ThanksLiving gathering (a vegan celebration of Thanksgiving) where the narrator Jody hears Dr. Will Tuttle speak. Although the novel is fiction, I did hear Dr. Will Tuttle speak at our local ThanksLiving celebration and I credit this (along with knowing some dairy cows) among the top reasons I went vegan now more than five years ago. This decision was life changing!read more on my author blog: What would Pythagoras do — reading from Cinnamon, a dairy cow’s (and her farmer’s) path to freedom #govegan #amreading | Janet Mason, author [https://tealeavesamemoir.wordpress.com/2025/03/08/what-would-pythagoras-do-reading-from-cinnamon-a-dairy-cows-and-her-farmers-path-to-freedom-govegan-amreading/]

This week I decided to share an excerpt from my novel THEY, a biblical tale of secret genders (Adelaide Books – New York & Lisbon). Although the novel was published in 2018, it has recently come to my attention because it has been seriously harassed online by white supremacists who have harassed me with a barrage of homophobia, antisemitism, and the threat of book burnings. As a practicing Buddhist, I do believe in having compassion for everyone and I do, including for the harassers. Because of them, I have decided to revisit this novel and for that I am thankful. These few paragraphs I am bringing you are from Book Two, Chapter Thirteen of THEY, a biblical tale of secret genders where my main character, Tamar, is reborn in the womb of the Mother, with her twin brother Yeshua.read more on my author blog: Compassion for the harassers—revisiting THEY, a biblical tale of secret genders #FaithfullyLGBT #amreading | Janet Mason, author [https://tealeavesamemoir.wordpress.com/2025/02/23/compassion-for-the-harassers-revisiting-they-a-biblical-tale-of-secret-genders-faithfullylgbt-amreading/]
