For Roo!

This poem is dedicated to our dear sister

I have a bouncy little sister,

As bouncy as she is a dancer,

Her dance moves were graceful and sleek

As if it was a language she was meant to speak

She was a tough and determined fighter

Overcoming Life’s every disaster

And yet never showing any doubts

For her dream it is all about.

To show the world her dances

And how through life she prances

It wasn’t all about glory

When she shares about her story

She was genuine to share

For people that needs her care

Her name is Raychel

As much as she is an angel

She always comes in with a “Lo!”

Which everyone replies with a “Hello!”

She loves to share her jokes

Which were hardly ever understood by the folks

“Humor is long dead”

Was what she always said

Even though she had to explain

The people were always entertained

She’s a dancing encyclopedia

Far superior that the Wikipedia

And when she says her farewell

She would always go “dream well”

But now the place will be hollow

And in silence they wallow

For she is gone for good

As helplessly we stood

It was people of hate

Who loves to discriminate

For she was gender gifted

Whose beliefs never shifted

She stood at the end of her journey

With a smile that was so saintly

She left with a heart full of burden

And we were left grief ridden

In the Heavens she now stands

Looking at us on the lands

With a smile on her face

She covers us in her embrace

Forever.....

For Roo 2009

I love you, sis.

You will always be in my heart..and I promise I won't be jealous of Danielle......we will tell your story...

Love you always,

Sherlyn

This is truly beautiful!

I know that Roo loves it.

You knew her so much better than I did, so I know how hard it was for you to write this.

It is a fitting tribute to a young and loving soul.

Tonight when you first see the stars look for the very brightest one and you will know that it is Raychel smiling at you.

She has read her poem and is saying thank you to a true friend.

Love ya,

Sally

Beautiful tribute, Roo will never be forgotten! Our heart will not let it!! To see how many people she touched, is a beautiful thing indeed.

A beautiful and inspired poem, Sherlyn. We share your pain and your loss.

Perhaps the best way to show our appreciation of everything that Roo stood for, to use

an overused phrase, is to pay it forward. Return what she gave us to someone else in need

or in pain.

I think Roo would like that very much.

      My size. A lot of guys aren't 5'3" at seventeen. My hands. It's a less noticeable one, but my hands are very "feminine"? If you know what I mean. My voice. Very high-pitched. I don't just sound like a female, I sound like a little girl sometimes My chest. I've had to stop binding due to frequent aches doing so, and it's not nearly small enough to just cover with baggy clothes My family. They still call me she/her, so that's an automatic out. My anxiety. I might be able to pass better if I had the courage to correct people. Instead, I'm too scared to speak up, so I find it hard. My lack of men's clothes.   Anyone else have these problems, or other ones?

      From what I have read and heard most people are so.busy with their everyday lives and either looking at their phones or in a hurry to notice you out and about.

      This exactly ^^^   I actually really liked games where I was required to play a male character. It felt homey, in a way.

      Anyone play war and order on their phones?  
    • violet r
      I can relate.  I have always played a female character when given the opportunity. Not really and reason except I just alway pick them since I was young

      Yes, our little town is having its 3rd annual Pridefest. I've volunteered the first two years  from setup to tear down (though I do take an hour off to eat and drink in the middle).     Then I attend a bigger one a couple towns over that has had some decent entertainment from some semi-famous folks (Laura Benanti, Patrick Wilson, Carmen Carrera, Judy Gold, etc).    This year I made sure to ask off of (weekend) shifts to attend a 3rd one where a group I'm in is in the parade.

      Hi Vicky, I agree with you, so far since the time I've been under the new treating doctor's care, she prescribed me medication, but it's for children lol  luckily  my pharmacy warned me from a phone call not to take the medication.

      Welcome to the party, M.A.     Sounds chaotic haha, I can confidently say that living with only two children the same age is stressful enough, much less three!

      Things hit the fan today. I was reminded that "this is not a gender fluid establishment."   I had changed my preferred name and gender at the hospital on their app. My x-ray report came in with my preferred name and gender. It was not appreciated by the centre. 😬

      I'm not a nutritionist but I've gone on bulking diets in the past so I can suggest a couple things to try. Foremost, food-prep stuff that you like to eat. Any 'real food' that usually sounds good to you. That way, you don't have the time-sink or hassle of cooking for every meal. You're more likely to eat if stuff if it's convenient and mostly ready. For example, I'll spend an hour or so one evening prepping burrito ingredients that will last me the next 3 nights. Then it's just a matter of microwaving the beef/beans and throwing them into a tortilla; takes 5 min.   If you need food 'on the go' often, consider prepping smoothies in advance pre-separated out into individual containers. I personally like low-no fat yogurt blended with fruit and, here's the weird part, those water flavor drops. They add sweetness without dumping in excess sugar. Insulated containers will keep them reasonably fresh non-refridgerated all day so they can even be tossed into a backpack.    Hope of those sparked some ideas!
