Stopped being able to be in denial on friday...

and this popped into my head. As a friend said, it's confusing and scary but ignoring just makes you feel more confused and scared, and that's so accurate.

I had a similar realization. I found a moment of clarity and realized that I have the power to change my fate and I am the one who controls me. I should pursue happiness for myself and nobody else. If it's a problem for anyone else, they've made it their problem, not me. I get to be selfish about this and so do you. Go get it, friend. You're walking this path with millions of your own cousins.

Transition is the greatest act of self-respect and love I have ever taken.

To add to that, you're the only one who has to live in your body

So true. If you're going to live in your body, you should make it feel like you and it should feel like you own it.
