a gift given to me by a Native American for all the hard work I had done done for a powwow /gathering . I was invited to some ceremonies the memories of the event and people I met and got to know and the wisdom and sayings that they all shared is probably the best possession i could have gotten

I have a little stuffed monkey. His arm is kinda ripped but he's good. My dog is the most valuable thing I own.

My dog would be mine too!

My dog Luna has been my only constant

My neighbor is a girl with with black dog named Luna.

I recently lost my longest held possession, it was a army olive green dufflebag. I bought it 3 hours before a plane flight to Europe, packed it up and went on a two month trip. I hopped trains with it, bicycled to Mexico, etc. Left it in an abandoned house in a closet thinking it would be left alone til I got back. Ended up being gone for 3 months and sure enough when I got back it was gone. Carried it for 7 years or so. It's okay, I want to make my own bag now.

The jacket I'm wearing. First article of clothing I got to choose for myself, in the sixth grade. Jean jacket. Wearing it right now mom was all worried I would grow out of it, so she made me get a huge size. Now it fits my adult body just fine. That was....shit....15 years ago? Ish?

My teddy bear. It is long gone though. Lost in travels. I'd had it since I was born. So, for over 20 years, I had it. I miss it. It's since been replaced by another teddy, a lamb that was given to me by another queer.

I no longer have him but my snoopy piggy bank. I just busted him open an I've had him since second grade. Almost a thousand dollars in him. Knew he would save my life one day. I stuffed any extra party money in him I had for the las 20 years. An I miss him more than ever.
