“I like to think I am transforming my sexual being. By forging deep connections between conscious awareness and primal urges. That’s why I find man-animal hybrids so erotic. I love to see a thinking man struggle with his beast within.” — Papa Bear Hero: Scruffy Lobo 🐺⛓️San Francisco (Folsom) Sept 27-28

Thanks for being there on my spandex journey! You're an inspiration.

Damn right. If I ruled the world, you could wear a thong wherever you wanted to.

Good lord, pup! Your back is so big and beefy. And your ass is completely blowing my mind right now.

Check out this fun interview I did with William and The Magic Box earlier this month. I loved William's positive energy, and his insight on life. youtube.com/watch?v=EnypB1…

“I’ve been sitting with my pain. It’s tricky to find the right spot. Surrendering, without giving in. I see why people run away. That shit hurts. Warps how you think. Why do it then? Because on the other side peace calls to me.” — Papa Bear Hero: Scruffy Lobo 🐺⛓️San Francisco (Folsom) Sept 27-28

“Because sometimes life is just better with a furry, lavender Minotaur.” — Papa Bear Hero: brandon bazron jr on IG

“When tragedy strikes, it will become trauma, researchers say, unless we surround ourselves with people who make us feel safe. I see this in my grieving clients. They instinctively either cling to a Circle of Love that is already around them, or they try to put one in place.”

“Pegasus, was conceived in the temple of Athena. He was the offspring of Poseidon, and Medusa. So my Pegasus combines cunning intellect, the power of the sea, and fearsomeness. Together with a touch of flair, as evidenced by his pink thong.” — Papa Bear Pegasus: Scruffy Lobo 🐺⛓️ San Diego July 25-28

“Sometimes, the clouds gather. They obscure our view, and stop us from seeing the way forward. In those moments, it’s helpful to find a reason for joy. Our task is then to focus on that joy, so that it fills us and lights the path ahead.” — Papa Bear Hero: JAX

“Above and below water, things look different. Learning to see things from another man’s viewport expands our horizons. This, in turn, allows us to set fear aside and to act from a place of unconditional love. So take the plunge. Get wet.” — Papa Bear Hero: JAX

“Find yourself shuffling from place to place? Unable to find joy? It’s okay. Some points in your healing will be like that. It’s enough to just get yourself through today. The future will take care of itself, in due course.” — Papa Bear Hero: Scruffy Lobo 🐺⛓️San Francisco (Folsom) Sept 27-28

“Most of us want the sensation of flying high. Yet all too often, past traumas block our path. We’re afraid we will be hurt again like before. I’m convinced the way forward is love. Love for others, and love for ourselves.” — Papa Bear Hero: Aaron Trainer

“It’s the witches’ Samhain sabbath. There the coven will venerate the great Horned God of the green forest. Samhain marks the beginning of the dark half of the year, when all of Nature sleeps.” — Papa Bear Horned God: Scruffy Lobo 🐺⛓️San Francisco (Folsom) Sept 27-28 Base photo of me: Emitt More Photographer

“We are forever building ourselves. Adding to the sum of who we are. Evolving into something more. There is no endpoint. No moment where we say, ‘There, I made it!’ So find joy in the process. Learn to love becoming an evermore-authentic you.” — Papa Bear Hero: Scruffy Lobo 🐺⛓️ San Diego July 25-28

Wishing JAX a very Happy Birthday! Because his special day falls in the month of Jocktober, I’ve depicted him as Cerberus, guardian of the entrance to the Under (Wear) World.

“Big cat energy coming through! Some people are majestic. They move with grace and energy, like a lion or tiger. To watch them is to feel joy. Milk it for all it is worth. You don’t know when it will go suddenly bounding away.” — Papa Bear Hero: chrisdomunis

“Happy Halloween! Happy Samhain! They say the veil between worlds is thin enough to see through. Like our ghost’s bikini. What? You thought an invisible bikini meant he would put on a show? Well, the fence behind him is showing through… ” — Papa Bear Hero: JAX

“The dark side. The inner critic. Don’t push against it. Don’t hide it. It’s a childhood protector. It kept you from where you had been hurt before. It serves you poorly now. Thank it for past protection. Hold its hand, and face to the light.” — Papa Bear Hero: Pup Hanger
