A Saturday morning meditation

-
On being good to yourself.

Bring.
Breathe.
Believe.

Sing. 
Stand.
Share.

Laugh.
Love.
Learn.

Dance.
Dream. 
Dare.

Do these things every day.

Bring your wildest ideas to the table. 
Breathe in spirit. Breathe out strength.
Believe in yourself first and others will follow suit.

Sing along to the music in your heart
Stand up for your truth even when no one else does.
Share your life with all who need it.

Laugh at yourself to take your ego down a notch.
Love yourself exactly as you are.
Learn to be still in a world that never stops moving.

Dance to get rid of the day's tension.
Dream of your highest, best good every single day.
Dare to dream and dream to dare.

Be for yourself. 

Sohum.

Innerview With A Bear - by Eric F. Crow

(In full regalia, photo by  Tristan Sutphin ) Heath Hooper is the current Mr. World Bear 2023 . Last September, he competed at World Bear Weekend alongside with our own Mr. LA Leather Bear 2020, Alan Gabriel. He's just a little past the halfway point of his reign, and I wanted to see how he saw the proverbial forest shaping up. Coming from the days of IBR (Int'l Bear Rendezvous), personally, it's been a relief to know that there is a pathway for Bears that find themselves up to the task have a pathway to the proverbial top of the intercontinental Bear pile. They picked things up and ran with them, having most recently with their landmark decision to remove the gender requirement from all titles in their system.  Heath is a great way to return to regular content here at New Horizons For Fifty. On with the interview. Eric: How has your title year gone? Where have you been and what have you done with your time? Heath : My title year and my fiftieth earth year so far has been...

World Bear Weekend is coming up August 1-4 in Lexington, Kentucky. This contest and weekend kicked off in 2018 and they currently have four titles that people can try out for--World Bear, World Cub, Ms. World Bear and World Pet. We were privileged to hear from from Heath Hooper and Jonathan Daniels earlier this year. It's time now to hear from David Sugar and Haifisch Katchen , who are completing their title years respectively as World Cub and World Pet. David's interview is below and Haifisch will be released over the weekend. For more information on the event and its history, please visit https://worldbearweekend.com .   NH4F: How did you come to identify as a Leatherbear? Was it like a second coming out or just a step forward in your own evolution as a person? David : The first two contests I competed for were Mr. Maryland Leather in November 2019, where I placed first runner up; then following tradition, I competed at Mid Atlantic Leather in January 2020. I w...

Inner View of a Pet - by Eric Crow and Jonathan Daniels

  During the process of interviewing the current Mr. World Bear, Heath Hooper, it made perfect sense to reach out to his husband, Jonathan Daniel, who has also served as an international titleholder (North American Pet 2022) . What followed was one of the most unique experiences I have ever had in all the interviews I have done, and there have been many . This is also the most collaborative interview in the history of New Horizons to date--it's making me reconsider how I approach the idea of an interview. Jonathan is a treasure trove of quotable lines that are quite relevant in regards to the life of a titleholder, as well as the cherished subjects of body positivity and personal empowerment, and he presents a very healthy outlook on the subject of Pet play and the Pet community. I don't think I would have learned as much as I did using the "send questions, wait for answers" format that I use. Get ready to get deep, because this is a five-course meal of an interview. ...
