These Romantic + Idealistic
“Conversation Pieces”
Were Born From Personal Experience
And I Offer Them To You
In The Hopes
That They Will Spark :
That One Conversation
That might
change a life.
~ ~ ~
Freedom To Love
is beyond a Civil Right
It’s a Birth Right.
~ ~ ~
We Don’t Fall in Love We RISE™
In Solidarity with
Our GlobaL-LGBT, Girl Power + Civil Rights family,
aching for both Freedom to Live
And Freedom To Love.
Those who identify as Lesbian,
Label-Free , LGBTQ , Transgender
OR “Mixed Orientation Families”
can be especially misunderstood
within the So-Called “Norms” of Society.
“Norms” behind which, exist many closets
holding secrets, lies, and tragedies.
Healing conversations
facilitate both Freedom FROM Shame
and Freedom TO Love.
We Are sending out the film, the album,
and my designs as Labours of Love.

My Romance With Life
by Cali Lili

I have always “ identified, ”
first and foremost, as :
ARTIST.
When I accepted myself as a
Truli*Indie™
Film & Music Maker,
I sorted out my challenges
by writing my
Declaration of IndiePendence™
exploring the relationship between
Society and the Artist.
We need each other, and together
we can SustainTheARTist™
I built my Studio, based upon my Methodology.
The Sale of my Designs, helps me Sustain
my FeMtO™StudiO
+
FeMPoWorD™ Team
So we can continue to tell
Truli*Indie stories that are
“ HandMade 2 Make a Difference”
~ ~ ~
I am lucky to have found
the missing piece of my own personal puzzle,
when I realized that I was in Love with
both :
My Male HeteroSexual Life + Producing Partner
(whom I married at a very young age)
and
My Lesbian Girlfriend at that time.
(whom I met after getting married).
When I first realized this,
I felt : ashamed.
I researched this “condition”
as though I was mentally ill.
Luckily, with much soul searching,
much researching
and much love and support from
My Male Partner,
My New GirlFriend (my first gf + i had separated)
and my friends,
I found my way out of that Place of Shame.
The Fact that All My Girlfriends have been
African American allowed me insight into
why I have always felt so close
to African American Culture,
And My Interracial Relationships with
My Girlfriends, also provided insight
Into Why I feel so close to #BlackLivesMatter
I don’t care for Labels !
So I guess I am “ Label Free ”
Though in many ways,
I would lean toward calling myself a “Lesbian,”
And I know that some Lesbians would take issue with this.
Ah, That Place of Shame,
That Place,
Where Some Communities, Societies / Cultures
relegate those who are honest about
their personal growth.
Let us,
In Solidarity with those who are TRULY repressed,
Let GO of our Needless Prejudice,
Let Us show the way to TRUE #DIVERSITY
In the #LGBTQ Community.
The #RainbowFlag is the BEST FLAG OF ALL
Let us Truly “Be The Change We Wish To See ”
And END the Discrimination that exists even
within our own Rainbow Community,
If only in Acknowledgement of those of us
who suffer, anywhere.
Let us not be the cause of such suffering,
Love Is Indeed, Love.
For Anybody Who Feels Ashamed
About Whom You Love :
I Want To Say :
This is about : PERSONAL GROWTH
This is Cause for Celebration!
Not Shame.
It’s About LOVE.
That’s it.
~ ~ ~
I didn’t have to leave,
I didn’t have to lose,
my dignity,
my family,
my creative and life partnership,
my home,
and
I didn’t have to lose my girlfriend,
or my friends.
Anything that I did lose,
needed to be lost.
I am happy + healthy in what is known as a
“Mixed Orientation Life and Creative Partnership”
with my Male Partner,
Who has ABSOLUTELY ZERO participation
in my Very SEPARATE,
very exclusive, monogamous
relationship with my girlfriend.
NO, he does NOT See Other Women.
NO This is NOT an “Open Marriage”
I got married Super Young
and as an over-achiever in school,
skipping grades, winning scholarships and awards,
I just never had the time to figure out my orientation.
My Male Partner is Much Older
+ Loves Me As I am.
So Does My GF.
So Do My Friends.
~ ~ ~
The More “Me” I am, the More I Can Love Others.
Learning about this missing piece of me,
Helped me to literally “Grow Up”
“Grow into” … me.
My Male Partner loves me,
My Girlfriend loves me,
My Friends love me.
Of course I love them !
That’s WHY I was willing to go through
The Self Searching, the Soul Searching
I was Honest, no matter how HARD that was …
And
I didn’t know I was missing out on this :
“i love me too.”
Whew,
Sometimes It’s Hard To Say, right ?
~ ~ ~
Learning about myself also helped me
find the missing pieces
for the films, books + albums
I wrote WAY before I
discovered my orientation !
And it’s “Coming Out” in my upcoming
Social Justice films, albums + books.
~ ~ ~
If We Are Lucky Enough

Romantic + Idealistic
