Are you ready to meditate with Kori?
Make sure that you're all snuggly and warm in your bed,
Unless it's super hot and then make sure that you're comfortable.
Turn the lights down low.
Focus your body so you can let go of your busy day.
Heidi,
Cherry and Veya had been having fun in the pool with one of their friends,
Melody,
All day long.
By the end of the day,
They were absolutely exhausted.
They kissed Melody,
Gave her big hugs and said goodbye and then they went home.
When they got home,
They were talking about what a fun day it was.
Cherry said,
I really liked Melody's bikini.
It was so nice.
OMG,
You know sometimes,
I mean I really love being a cat and everything,
But sometimes I wish that I was a girl because I would wear a bikini just like Melody's.
Veya said,
It was really nice,
Wasn't it?
It was so pretty.
I liked the little pom poms that it had all around the top and the pom poms that it had around the waistline on the bikini bottom.
Yeah,
That's what I liked.
It was so cute and I loved how it was rainbow colours.
It was so bright and so fun.
I'm going to see if I get a bikini like that,
If I can get a bikini like that.
But you know,
I know that,
You know,
We can wear bikinis and everything,
But it doesn't quite look the same when you're so furry.
I'd like a bikini.
I'd like,
Actually,
I think,
I think I'd like to be a girl.
I think,
I think if I could come back and have a different life and be a different person or be like a different animal,
I would be a girl because I think girls are so cool.
I really do like boys.
I think I have a really good strong tomboy streak inside of me.
What do you think,
Heidi?
Heidi said,
Yeah,
I think you're a good mix of both.
Yeah,
Me too.
I think I'm like a boy and a girl.
And you know,
I think that that's OK.
Don't you,
Vea?
Vea said,
Yeah,
I do.
I also think it's OK to be totally a boy or it's OK to be totally a girl.
And I also think it's OK to,
You know,
Maybe be in a boy's body,
But feel more like a girl.
And I think it's OK if you're in a girl's body and you feel like you'd rather be a boy.
I think it's all OK as long as you're happy at the end of the day.
I think that.
What do you think?
Cherry said,
OMG,
Yeah,
Totally agrees.
Tots,
Tots,
Vea,
Tots.
I think,
You know what,
You know what would be fun?
If we were,
Oh,
Gosh,
What's that word?
Oh,
God,
There's no way.
There's no way I'm going to remember that word.
But I was once,
I was once like listening to a meditation night and it was about the beginning of time.
And in the beginning of time,
It had this thing right where you didn't have a sex,
You were,
You weren't a girl or you weren't a boy.
There were,
Oh,
Gosh,
What's it called?
Amphibious.
No,
No,
I think that's something to do with water.
Oh,
It's not going to come.
I think it begins with an A.
Heidi said,
Cherry,
I don't know which one you mean.
Are you talking about gender in some way,
Like being non-gender or something like that?
No.
Well,
Yeah.
Yeah.
Kind of.
OK,
I forgot it.
Anyway,
Yeah,
Like what if you didn't have a sex and you were just like neither a boy or a girl?
You were one of those,
Right?
I think I'd be kind of like that because I'm like,
I feel like I'm a 50-50 mix.
I feel like I've got some tomboy in me.
Like I like,
I like lots of boy things.
And I also feel like I've got lots of girl things in me.
I'd be a they or them.
I don't know.
Anyway,
What I'm saying is it's all cool,
Right,
Heidi?
It's all cool.
Heidi said,
Of course.
Yeah,
I mean,
Everyone has a right to be and feel and do what they feel is best for them.
Of course,
If it hurts someone,
That's not good.
But if you're not hurting anyone and you're doing something because this is what feels right in your heart,
Then yes,
That's right.
Exactly.
So what I'm thinking right now today in this moment is I want to be a girl and I want to wear a bra.
Heidi started laughing.
You want to wear a bra?
Yeah,
I do.
I wonder what it's like to wear a bra.
I bet it's so cool.
I think I'd feel so grown up if I wore a bra.
And I want one of those bras that's so pretty and lacy.
They said,
Oh,
Me has kind of like one of those.
It's called a bralette and it's lacy and you can just wear it like a sports bra.
Oh,
They I didn't know you had one of those.
I want one of those.
I want to wear it.
Can I wear it for bed tonight?
I chuckled and said,
Of course,
Of course.
It was pink.
Cherry loved it.
It wasn't quite the right color to go with her ginger fur,
But she wasn't thinking about having ginger fur.
She was thinking about being a girl and what it would feel like to wear a bralette and be like at that age where you get boobs.
She thought it was so cool.
It's going to be so cool.
I can't wait.
I just want to be a girl.
I'm going to dream tonight about being a girl.
OK,
Guys,
Love you.
Bye.
Cherry snuggled into her sister's on the bed,
Gave them both a snuggly kiss and then closed her eyes really quick.
She was laid there in a pink bralette and she quickly fell to sleep.
She was walking down a corridor.
She was at school.
She was wearing a school uniform.
She looked down and she got legs,
Real legs.
Well,
Her legs are real,
But legs without fur,
Girl legs.
And then at one point she looked down and she had trousers on and she had boy legs.
But then she kind of changed her dream back a little bit because you can do that sometimes in your dreams.
You can change them to how you want them to go.
She was having a lucid dream.
That's when you can change your dreams.
She changed it quickly as if one blink of her eyes made her legs go back to being girl legs.
She looked up at a pleated navy blue skirt.
She had a white polo on and a navy blue blazer.
It was her uniform.
She felt very cute.
She had long ginger hair and she was swishing it when she walked.
And all the boys in the corridor were paying attention.
They were paying attention because she was super cute.
She was itchy though.
Oh,
This thing itches,
She thought to herself.
She looked down and pulled the neck of her polo shirt away from her body and peeked inside.
She was wearing the pink lacy bralette.
OMG,
This thing is so annoying.
It itches,
She thought to herself,
But she didn't say anything out loud.
She was supposed to be looking cool at school in a bra.
Oh,
I don't think I like it.
This is not all it's cracked up to be.
I'm going to switch it,
She thought.
And she instantly switched the pink lacy bralette to a comfortable tank top.
It was like a sports bra.
This is much more me,
So much more practical.
I can run and jump.
I can play soccer in this.
This is awesome.
She got to her class,
Sat down at her class,
Did math.
Very boring.
She thought to herself,
Wow,
It's just as boring being a girl at school than it is a cat.
After math,
It was PE,
Physical education.
That's PE.
She was playing soccer.
She was center.
She was really good at soccer.
I knew I'd be good at soccer,
She thought.
I knew that part of me that felt like a boy would be so good at soccer.
Actually,
Or is it my girl part?
I think it's my girl part.
My girl part is so good at soccer.
Why does it have to be my boy part?
It doesn't.
This is all the conversation that she was having inside of her head the whole dream.
Deciding whether she wanted to be a girl or a boy,
Or if she was a girl or a boy,
Or if she was just mixed.
What if she was just non-gender?
What if she was just,
Who knows,
One of those things that she couldn't remember the name of?
Aphrodite?
No,
That's not it.
She thought to herself.
She did realize that being a girl,
And as she was a girl,
Her voice wasn't as quite annoying.
She liked that.
I sound more like Faye,
She thought to herself,
But a little bit deeper.
She did really good in PE,
Especially wearing a sports bra.
Perfect choice,
She thought to herself.
And then in her dream it switched and she found herself going to one of her best friends' parties.
She was wearing a really cute bright orange and black dress.
The sports bra underneath the dress was chunky and annoying,
And she could see the straps and it didn't look right.
She instantly changed the bra in a dream.
To a peach bra that was more like a typical bra,
It was underwired.
OMG,
She said to herself.
This must be what it feels like to wear a bra,
Like a proper bra,
A really fancy grown up girly bra.
It's underwired and everything.
OMG.
I'm so cute.
About two hours into the party,
She kept pulling at a bra.
Oh it's digging in,
So annoying.
She danced,
She played,
They played games on the back garden.
They did all sorts of fun stuff in a dream.
And the whole time,
A underwire bra was so annoying.
Cherry went through about five different types of bras in her dream that night.
When she woke up,
She told Heidi and Veya all about her dream.
OMG guys,
I was so cute,
So cute.
And I was just kinda like I was now.
Who I am now is a cat.
But I was a girl.
But I was not like a girly girl and I wasn't like a tomboy.
I was like a good mix I think.
I was definitely like that word.
Oh gosh that word again,
I still can't remember.
That's it.
Androgynous.
That's the word.
OMG.
That's the most annoying thing in the entire world.
Androgynous.
Androgynous is when you don't have a particular sex,
You're just like both or like none.
I was none.
I was,
Well,
I wouldn't,
Well,
You know what?
Does it really matter?
Because I could have been at one point in my dream that I had boy legs and I had my boy trousers on,
But I probably still would have looked super cute in my pink bra.
If I was a boy,
If that's what I wanted.
And when I was a girl and I was wearing my sports bra,
I would have still looked super cute in my soccer keats.
So,
You know,
I don't know about this thing.
I think maybe in the future everyone will end up being androgynous.
Heidi said,
Wow,
Cherry,
So proud of you.
That's the right word and everything.
And you remembered it.
Yeah,
Well,
It only took me two days.
When I got there,
Right,
I got there.
Yeah,
Androgynous.
I think I'm going to have that as the word of the day.
I'm going to use it as much as I possibly can so I sound really,
Really intelligent.
Anyway,
Yeah,
What we're doing today.
That was the end of the story.
Go to sleep,
Close your eyes.
Sweet dreams,
My little friend.
