In celebration of how I choose to love myself unconditionally, here I am, back on Vimeo, sans explicit sexuality.
In honor of my desire to show myself authentically, here’s a new video, based on an earlier post about my sense of self.
This took a long time – it took the time that it took.
I just watched it, but I also wanted to comment on your previous post. First-welcome back to the video world. I know what a struggle it has been, both logistically and mentally to get back to this point. In all honesty, I was surprised to see this post from you because though I had hopes of seeing you back in this format again, I wasn’t sure it would happen. But oh how wonderful it is to see you. I love this video Rain. I love the passage of time it contains. I love the finger movements and long wistful stares into the camera. I love the interplay with the mirrors. That is something that made this video so unique and beautiful. You exude so much here that it is hard to quantify it all. Perhaps I read too much into this, but I feel maybe a sense of satisfaction and annoyance/aggravation at your journey having been so crudely interrupted in such a way. I will watch this again because I find myself captivated by everything up until now. I hope that doesn’t come across as being too familiar with you. I just mean that knowing what has happened, this was both a pleasant surprise, and maybe a tinge of regretful sadness that it had to be so delayed from your last video, whenever that actually was. But not wishing to present the negative, this was really beautiful, and it was nice to see this side of you once again.

Thank you for your honesty Robert! You’re not being too familiar, I’m the one making myself familiar through my project 😉 Everyone is invited to see in this piece what they need to see, but it definitely meant so so much to me to turn my camera back on, allow myself to look at myself, and try to show what I see, physically, emotionally, spiritually. I made a second take where I’m more together, but I chose to keep the original one – the tension of doing this again after such a long break is impossible to reproduce.

I think I probably agree that you chose the right take. I know you are presenting such a raw thing. I can do it in words I suppose, but I could not imagine doing it this way, which I applaud you for! Emotions can be all over the place, reined in, or let loose. Sometimes separately, sometimes at once. It is really a privilege to see you share yours

Rain, I have been following your writing for some time now and i just wanted to say i am delighted that your amazing video clips are up and running again on Vimeo and I love the Pornhub updates too, I checked there every day for months (five months in fact) and what a treat I found when you updated it

Hi Dean, thanks for following my work and being patient for its reappearance! I still can’t believe how long it took me, but then again I also still can’t believe I’m doing this work in the first place, so I guess I’m slow at keeping up with everything!
