And then I jumped on to the LGBTQ [activities] because that was something I was passionate about at my coming out [period], so I was just trying — [I found it useful] for me to help explain why I am, who I am [and] to maybe mentor other kids, or adults, that are having a hard time coming out. I always left that language open. I didn't really have an organization where I was really like 'in in'— I kinda jumped around. So whatever was my group for that day or that month, yhat's what I would contribute my time to.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://througharainbowlens.aviaryplatform.com/collections/2385/collection_resources/125377/file/230678#t=1948.0,1994.0"},{"id":"https://througharainbowlens.aviaryplatform.com/collections/2385/collection_resources/125377/file/230678/transcript/66634/annotation/106","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Andrew Darien\n\nIs it correct that you you wrote a book called \"Try Kindness\"?","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://througharainbowlens.aviaryplatform.com/collections/2385/collection_resources/125377/file/230678#t=1994.0,2000.0"},{"id":"https://througharainbowlens.aviaryplatform.com/collections/2385/collection_resources/125377/file/230678/transcript/66634/annotation/107","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"T Nash\n\nI did, yes I did.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://througharainbowlens.aviaryplatform.com/collections/2385/collection_resources/125377/file/230678#t=2000.0,2001.0"},{"id":"https://througharainbowlens.aviaryplatform.com/collections/2385/collection_resources/125377/file/230678/transcript/66634/annotation/108","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Andrew Darien\n\nCan you tell me a little bit about that book?","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://througharainbowlens.aviaryplatform.com/collections/2385/collection_resources/125377/file/230678#t=2001.0,2005.0"},{"id":"https://througharainbowlens.aviaryplatform.com/collections/2385/collection_resources/125377/file/230678/transcript/66634/annotation/109","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"T Nash\n\nYeah, \"Try Kindness\" is a book about caregivers. I took care of two clients that really respect[ed] who I was and thought highly of me, so I would tell them [and] we would sit around talking about different subjects or whatever, and they said, \"You know what? You really need to try to come up with a book!\" I said, \"I don't know how to write a book!\" They said, \"You don't have to worry don't worry about that X, Y, \u0026 Z\" so I said, \"Okay.\" Eventually what happened was I sat down, I took care of the mother and the father, I mean the mother — the two mothers, the mothers passed away, and once the mothers passed away, that's when they thought it was a good idea for me to come out with this book, and letting others know that it's okay to take care of your parents, and let go of a lot of things besides just death. Because the only thing at the end of life is just hospice and comfort care. But there's more than just comfort care, there's a lot more to comfort before you even get there. That's what that book's about. Kinda walking you through what's okay and what's not okay to be as you're getting older, and what, y'know, what really values you. Is it because she can't change or depend [upon herself]? Or is it because you just want her time and love and her safety?

And the elderly came in when I took care of my mother and knew how important it was for her to stay at home, as she did threaten me like, \"I'm never going to a nursing home.\" But when she [said] that I really doubted why she said that, because she never wanted to go into a nursing home. Not knowing [that] I didn't have no tools at all when I brought her home. But it was just the fact that this is what her wishes were and I wanted to take care of wishes, so that's why I ended up taking care of her/ Then I just enjoyed it, you know? The comfort that I had, and I was able to do it. So then I went to school for it and then once I found out [that] you can get a job behind it. [So] I went and furthered my education and then I just started picking up clients here and there. It's more of the experience that I had with the different clients that made me want to stay in this work, and how important it is for me to be able to have the nurturing heart that I have and what they offer, they give me too.
