Letter to Myself

This letter was pretty cool when I wrote it... Now it seems kind of cheesy to me.

Reality

A Letter to Myself

From: current 17-year-old me

To: 14-year-old me

Why can't you see

Reality?

Your soul is breaking

Your skin is aching

Or should I say-

You're aching inside your skin...

Why can't you see

Reality?

Your silent crying?

Your soul is dying

You're growing masculine and hairy

Isn't it scary?

Stop hiding your pain

-from yourself

-from others

You need to find yourself

You're trapped in a young man's body

Girl, you need to see

Reality

That is what I call "a moment of the soul." Those are quite beautiful to me. Purity, self confession, what is not to like?

Anyone can call me corny, but I like it! Quite a bit actually.

No whine, no cheese, just your soul speaking out to me. I really like it. Maybe it should be moved into Poetry Forum next week too, so it doesn't get quickly lost in the sauce. These words will help someone, old or new, here someday. Thanks for sharing. Hug. JodyAnn

You are very welcome. :) And yes, that would be excellent to move it into a Poetry Forum. I looked for a while, but couldn't find one - so I just put it in general.

Since you guys had this idea of where it should be, look what I did, I did leave a link in the general forum for you.

One of these days I will get around to putting some of my stuff here too.

Love it! If it were not for the paradox effects I'd totally send something like that to the ten year old me and my mom, just as soon as I have access to a time machine.

We can only dream, Melissa

I'd chance the paradox

      I'm thinking about some interactions yesterday I did, while presenting as male but acting as female, that were far better than I did when I was presenting as male and acting as male.  #girlunderhood. I do a crappy job at acting as male and I am giving it up.  I am not talking about feminine gestures or presentation but just relating as a woman.  People don't realize I am doing it but it is a whole lot easier to do.   You don't just put on a dress and BOOM you are a girl.  You are a girl and you put on a dress.  Or not. Whether I am in jeans or a skirt (I wish, wife would have lots to say) I am a girl.  I don't need $250 in makeup and heels and hose and all that.  I don't need surgery. Honey, I have arrived.  Now I have to work out how that best works in my life, causing the minimal damage and creating the maximum good, but I have more working room.   Oh, and I am still pissed off at everyone and everything. #Contradictory.

      @Willow it is certainly possible that my husband planned it. Placing me in the path of an opportunity....he certainly does things like that. GF has done some work for the company as an outside consultant, so I'm sure the company owner knows what potential resources are around.    It could also have just happened randomly. He has taken me to work with him before, just because he likes to have me around. I remember one time that I fell asleep with my head in his lap, and he held a meeting with his subordinates without waking me and making me move.  The company culture is family oriented and relaxed.

      The photo is great.  Software is phenomenal but it also is sort of a promise of things to come. Years ago this sort of thing took a photographer and Photoshop and all sorts of things and you would say, "I can look like THIS??"   Me, I am a duck.  That's from my driver's license.  Just kidding.

      I lucked into that picture. I took like 10 before that, which appropriately make me look like a donkey. ;)   Thank you so much for the compliment!

      This is a great analogy. The statement is true as it relates to the tree. The analogy fits because we as a LGBTQIA community are stronger when we stand together. It also work here on Transgender Pulse Forums. The support I feel from so many others has made me comfortable with my stance, because I'm in a beautiful forest of friends. So when I'm out alone and confronted. I can respond and act like the single tree in the field, surviving whatever comes my way. My roots reach back and communicate with others like me.    Standing Strong,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Mindy, that would be so awesome of you.  Please make the edit for me, and thank you so much!

      M.   The term bigender works for me because after taking the time to explore my feelings, I kept coming to the same conclusion, that while I felt an overpowering need to express my inner woman, I also enjoyed being a man.  I realized that my personality was equal parts man and woman and to be happy and fulfilled, I needed to express both sides.  There are challenges living a life of two-gender expression, but I'll expand on some of those in future posts.     Hugs,   Sally

      Sally, a moderator can edit the post adding "Post 3" if you would like. Let me know and I'll be glad to take care of it. That way your numbering system is in tact.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I thought Hey, I can't be experiencing Gender destroyer because it doesn't fit the narrative, but Hey I can. I am experiencing mild discomfort in relation to my gender. Because and that can be a form of mild form of it this forum because their elements of my gender that are out of alignment with my sign gender at birth. There are elements of my gender I have been holding back on some I did not even know for fear it did not fit was told was not very manly or in some other way not correct for someone who is an amab. I tried embracing and expressing some of these parts of me even for just a little bit every once in a while and it feels like a relief to me like a weight has been lifted.
