Alright, I'm gonna do one more. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 0:47

I mean as a kid, I would cry every time the sun would come out because my eyes were so sensitive. I I just remember feeling so like overwhelmed by the power of the sun.

SPEAKER_03 1:03

That's about all I got. Thank you. The shade has really come over you. Mercy!

unknown 1:10

Mercy.

SPEAKER_03 1:13

Yeah, you were suffering here, I'll be honest. Did you have body insecurities as a kid?

SPEAKER_02 1:23

Yeah. I mean I was a really late bloomer. I didn't have puberty until I was going into my junior year of high school. So I was like five foot tall when I was in like tenth grade. And for probably like two or three years, I like every time I looked in the mirror, I was like disappointed.

SPEAKER_04 2:01

During certain postures. I walk in and it stinks. It smells so intense. And you know, my classmates were really grossed out. But for me it was really the first time I had ever interacted with a body so objectively. It was like the first time that I had seen bodies truly just as a vessel. As a vessel to experience the life that they had lived.

SPEAKER_01 2:48

And angle this way? The other way, other way.

SPEAKER_03 2:58

Bravo! Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 3:01

But it was obvious to me that these bodies, these people, they weren't still there. They weren't still in their bodies. There was something else that had left them.

SPEAKER_00 3:13

Hi, yeah, yay.

SPEAKER_04 3:22

And that day changed my life.

SPEAKER_02 3:34

Just the sheer density of this city means that we need to be intimate with one another. I've had several conversations here where people are saying things I I don't think they've ever shared to anybody before. It feels essential to practice non-judgment out of respect for the history of this place and this park and its people. It's an honor for people to share anything at all. Thank you for sharing your humanity with me.

SPEAKER_03 4:18
