Lost Something Today

Little wolf cub

How will you know

To find your way

Through such deep snow

The trackless wild

Has been your home

In strange new lands

You now must roam

For your whole pack

You clear the way

To gentle lands

We all can stay

Little wolf club

Though we must part

You stray not far

From broken heart.

As some of you know, I have been struggling with depression lately. It's been tough but I finally think I have made a good turn. That said, today I lost my cousin, my oldest, dearest friend in the world. He was a gentle soul and for his memory, and that of my late mother, I WILL get my stuff together. He loved wolves. This poem is for him.

Christine, he may be gone physically but he will always be with you. You remember him, your love for him stays in your heart and when you need his support he will be there with you.

He has gone before you, but many have marked the trail ahead of him. He knows the way home and the way back

I have to quit writing now as I am at work and this has my crying

Hugs sis

Christine.....

I'm so sorry for your loss.....

He seemd to mean a lot to you...

But, on the plus side...you seem to be in a better place and that makes me feel good...you were pretty down....

I hope that you keep up that attitude and I know everything will work out for you!

LOVE & HUGGS!

What a beautiful poem!

I understand your feelings of loss but it is important to believe that things have gotten better for him.

In memory of this gentle soul and that of your mother you must focus on making your life better, lose that depression and carry them forever in your heart.

Can you feel the love for you?

It will never die, they are with you trying to help won't you accept their help and honor their memories by living a full and happy life each day celebrating the time you had with each of them rather than mourning the time apart.

Make each day a beautiful tribute to them.

Love ya,

Sally

This is truely a wonderful poem Christine.

Though it leads me to believe that you and the wolf cub have more in common than you realize.

Both of you trying to find your way through life, to the gental lands.

The wolf cub has nature to guide him.

You have your mother and cousin guiding you.

Look closely for the signs, they are there.

Your loved ones must be soo happy to know that they have been part of of your life and will be there to help you in the future.

Keep them close to your heart and you will find your way.

Thanks to all of you for your kind words. He was a great friend and will be missed. And yes Donna Jean I am in a better place. I've told others already that I would have expected this to send me reeling again but it has had the opposite effect. It has reminded me how precious life is. Also, I don't think allowing myself to self destruct again would be a a very good way to honor his memory.

Pax et Amor;

Christine

Moonbeams silhouette the shadows

against the crooked trees

reminding of fallen folliage

like souls lost to the winter's touch

as wolves mourn the celestial silence

of another star burnt out.

      https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/27/politics/lgbtq-health-care-biden-administration-rules-affordable-care-act/index.html   Personally, I think this is a very good thing.   Carolyn Marie

      I'd love to have a dinner party with Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Voltaire, and Ayn Rand.  Would definitely be an interesting time.

      In the forward I learn that transgenderism is bad, and somewhere else that transgender ideology is bad.  I have not yet read a definition of either in the document.  I assume they are the same.  I know Focus on a Family has a definition of transgenderism on their website, or did, but I am not sure this is the same as that.  I might agree that transgenderism is bad if they use a definition I condemn (e.g. transgenderism means you always pour ketchup in your shoes before you put them on - I could not agree to that).  Is someone who believes in transgenderism, whatever it is, a transgenderist? I never see that term.  There may be other definitions out there, but I don't think there is an Official Definition that we all agree to.

      Crazy fact, was gonna go to the school where this went down at before I moved, have a lot of friends there. I know at least one of my friends met the guy on one occasion, not knowing who it was.

      They are thinking of Loudon.  The problem there was the girls were not protected from a known predator, who was moved from one school to another instead being effectively disciplined.  Outlaw school administrators? <sarc>

      How ironic.  I agree with the governor "“You cannot change your gender; you cannot pick your gender…there is a confused group of people that somehow think you can,”    - we are what we are, we are fighting the fact we CANNOT change our gender, which we did not pick.  Many if not all of us would not have picked a trans condition and have sought to evade, deny or move out or resolve it anyway we can.  Those who are confused on this issue are not trans folk.  They want us to change our gender but they deny we can.  Confusion.

      @FinnyFinsterHH no one can satisfy your questions about what will the future hold. But I can advise you to slow your mind down as much as you're able. Take it slow and one moment at a time. This advice goes beyond the practical reality that that's truly all you can do - further, try to enjoy each moment. It's clear you have a lot of aspirations regarding transition. But it's best to try to accept the bounds of your life circumstances at present because if you develop worries or even resentments about them, that will only make you bitter and more anxious. Instead, try to focus on anything you find affirming. Practice positive self-talk and give yourself affirmations too. Try to let go of expectations of your family members - they can only deal with change to the capacity they're able due to their own life conditions. Allow them grace as you wish they would allow you. Practice patience.   Try this exercise - read through your post and make one list of the positive developments and another of things you cannot control (including the future). If you have a sense of spirituality, offer the second list as a sacrifice to however you understand a higher power - leave it in their hands. If you're not spiritual, then offer it up to hope. Then throw that list away. Keep the list of positives and leave some room on it because guaranteed you'll have more and more to add. Look forward to that, but don't let your mind think it can rush things. Try to enjoy the ride.

      Happy birthday, Sam! Lotsa love!

      I still have not read much of this.  Very little of this document pertains to trans folk.  Some of the statements are more than problematic concerning trans folk.   It certainly was not written just to get us.   " those with gender dysphoria should be expelled from military service."  and "Reverse policies that allow transgender individuals to serve in the military. Gender dysphoria is incompatible with the demands of military service,"  https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_CHAPTER-04.pdf are two lines out of hundreds if not thousands regarding the Department of Defense, targeting trans folk in an almost off-hand manner.    So if a fighter pilot, say, or a ship's captain, highly experienced and trained at enormous expense, is determined to be transgender (method unknown) the US loses someone badly needed due to the personnel shortage who is ready, willing and able to perform their duties.  Many trans folk have served well and transitioned later.  I don't think this point is well thought out.    A number of policy recommendations I would disagree with.  I am not sure there is a method to discuss those with the authors; I am attempting to find out.  I have good conservative creds.    They are fully intending to implement this, regardless of who the president is, as long as that president is conservative. It is not Trump centered.  I don't think he had anything to do with it.

      I wear a Delimira Mastectomy sleep bra with Vollence sleep rated breast forms. The form fit inside pockets so they don't touch your skin. I bought the bras on Amazon and found the forms on eBay. They were much less expensive than buying through the other sources.

      I wore an olive corduroy coverall dress with a navy blue shirt underneath.

      @LittleSamCongratulations on one of the biggest decisions. Looking forward to your progress.

      I don't wear a bra to bed.  The girls aren't big enough to need it, but still enough to appreciate.  Just a flannel nightgown suits me fine.

      You're welcome. I'm here quite often if you need me.
