Transgender Reflections, Changes and Goals

Labor Day is the time to reflect on the passing summer and prep for the fall.

It’s been a long hard summer for me. I stepped up once again to do the right thing… and unfortunately, although I was able to help out a lot of other people and make a lot of positive changes, it inevitably cost me VERY dearly.

The one good thing that came from my personal losses is that I am now forced to go down a different life path. Everything in life happens for a reason and I think I actually needed to go through all of this to realize what's truly important in my life.

What will happen… I do not know… but I think I need to finally start focusing on me and what makes me truly happy.

As for now, I'm dressed up in my favorite summer top and miniskirt and going into my yard to enjoy this beautiful summer night... ignoring what the homophobic neighbors will say... 

I'm doing this for me.

Side note (2 hours later): I'm out in my yard trying to relax and my homophobic neighbor is trying to take pictures of me in my own yard??? (And no... I did not talk to her or ask her to do that... she's just taking them to show her friends the freak next door (me)... and it's SO obvious, because the flash from the camera
is lighting up the part of my back yard where I'm sitting... Aren't there laws against that?) WTF???

I'm not upset... I actually feel bad for her... That her life is so boring... that she would get her kicks out of doing that. It only makes me more determined to find a new transgender friendly abode and a new transgender friendly job... ASAP!
