I am good enough. I am okey the way I look, I don’t need to look or act a certain way to be myself. No matter what, I will be myself, and I know myself the best. I know my body the best, I know my thoughts and feelings the best, and I know who I am the best. I am trans enough, I am queer enough, I am disabled enough, I am HoH enough, I am ill enough... I am myself. I am enough.

I forgot who did the posts that originally inspired me to draw this but it really hit me close to home. I appreciate this sort of sentiment and think it should be spread more. Every time someone asks you “Why do you think you’re X or Y?”, you seriously don’t owe them an explanation. Sometimes there really aren’t words for it. It’s just something YOU know YOU feel. And that’s enough, it really is. The greatest thing you can do to respect yourself is to understand that the only person any of it matters to, the only person who deserves to know why, is you. <3

It's International Trans Day of Visibility! I can't imagine there's anybody left who doesn't know this, but just FYI: I am not a woman and don't use she/her pronouns at all. I am non-binary and go by they/them. I've been exploring this in some capacity since I was 22, began using my pronouns at 24, began using my name at 26, and completed my legal transition at 29. I am now working on what will be the last step of my transition journey: top surgery! I'm very excited to see what 30 holds. I'm pretty passionate about owning my non-binary expression as *not* Trans Man Lite. I am trans, but I'm not a man, and I will continue to paint my own colors outside that traditional canvas. As a result I may still be misgendered constantly - but the world must learn and adjust for me, since I will never change myself to accommodate the world. #internationaltransgenderdayofvisibility #tdov #tdov2019 #trans #transenough #nonbinary #nonbinarypride https://www.instagram.com/p/BvrXNy6hNag/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=a033y9arlgbn
