Persevering as Your True Self…
Transgender people don’t take this path on a whim or a fad. It’s not some kink, or a game, they put on and then throw away as they move on in life. They do it to be their true selves, who they are inside. They do it to stop wearing a well crafted mask that well meaning people, parents and friends, thought would be their best option, most often because the mask made them feel more comfortable around them, seem normal. But the gender dysphoria just intensified, the internal conflict inside remained, as the years went on and I was more miserable.
This has always been an up hill battle. I had spent years trying to understand myself, trying to deny, live with and then slowly piece together the truth from out right lies and misinformation. But from many sources, too many to count, you find clarity. It became a quest, to find hidden history of persons like myself that have lived long ago. Also to find honest researchers and the work they have done. The pattern emerged… the misinformation and lies were seen for the deceptions they were and are. I was not alone how I felt.
Most often I’ve had to persevere and teach others, help them find the truth for themselves. But I’ve also learned some don’t want to learn. Their ears are closed, their hearts are hard, from learning. I’ve walked away from these persons knowing I do this for myself, not for anyone else. This is my path to walk, no one else’s.
A cruel and UN-fair world it is. We have much work to do. But it is also a lovely world when you set all that aside and feel who you are inside, live as your true self, normalize transgender persons. Their are more persons who want this world to be fair, and live a life full of love and respect, for every living thing.
