Item 172 – 10 Custom Items

Now that this may be the last gishwhes-as-we-know-it ever, it’s time to reflect on missed opportunities. Let’s see the Item List Misha SHOULD have made all these years. Give us your team’s ideal gishwhes Item List with a minimum of 10 Items. If the majority of the items you create look like no thought was put into them (and you were just quickly writing down items to get the points), you will receive zero points.

Item 166 – #WaywardAF #BadassAF

Lucinda has always wanted to create her own GISHWHES items, so she went meta and assigned personalized challenges to various team members.

Item 166.3 - Strong and Beautiful Witch

Kyla – Show us what it means to be a strong & beautiful witch.

I went meta on your meta, Lou.

I’ve always wanted to share a picture of myself post-breakdown.

A few friends were concerned that this image was too sad to convey strength. I want to challenge that idea. I used to work really hard not to feel my feelings because it wasn’t strong. I think my ability to feel is one of my greatest strengths now, and I want to share that.

In my intimate circle of witch sisters, I’m a famous for epic breakdowns. Whatever I’m feeling, I feel to the fullest. It’s been a big piece of my spiritual journey to reclaim my emotional sensitivity as a power (and not see it as a huge inconvenience to me and everyone else) but it is a gift… so many people shared with me the beauty and strength they felt in witnessing me go to my fullest – and how it felt when I brought them there too. This is one more step on the path to reclaiming my full self, sharing this with GISHWHES. On Thursday, I dressed up as a zombie for work, then got in the car and screamed my throat sore over heartbreak, then sobbed and sobbed, then pulled it together for an ocean scene burrito eating Cali perfection shot – then more tears, and a captured photo of the wreckage. All in a day’s work for a strong and beautiful witch. We just keep going, and living, and feeling it all, and that’s the legacy I want to leave.

Oh, and the moon, because she gets it too.

<3 Thank you for this incredibly special and personal GISH opportunity.
