The Truth

The Truth

by Sally Michelle Jackson

So many times I hear people say

they want to hear the truth today.

I have to ask please make that clear

is it just the truth that you long to hear?

The reasons come back and so very loud

there is only one truth, that's all that's allowed.

But there is the truth that you have and see

which just isn't the truth that speaks to me.

We each hold in our heart and mind

an image of truth which our lives define.

But the truth for you is clouded as a dark crystal to me

while my truth is bright and glistens like sunlight on the sea.

How can this be there is only one truth and that is all

but if that is true then we must answer that same call.

We are all different you and me and there is a reason for all to see,

we are all different and within the difference is the very reason to be.

Wow, that was quick, were you reading over my shoulder while I wrote this?

Thank you so much, I don't get much encouragement about poetry in my day to day mundaine life, so I post it here with all of my true friends.

Love ya,

Sally

Dearest Sally,

Once again you have shown how just incredibly wise and sensitive you are. You must add this poem to your book of poems!! The truth?? Yes we may all express it differently from each other, but the single truth remains... We are all here, here at Laura's. The single truth that brings us all here is that we are all gender-gifted, and we have all found our way here. I cannot think of a greater singularity of truth than that!!

Love

I could never write a poem and i tried for years, but I embraced who I really was and one night I wrote a poem for a very dear friend here and others said that it was good and that was all I needed to hear, I now get a small notion often from posts that I have read and I write a poem, they want to be recorded so I type them.

Feel who you really are and love that person and write what you feel at that moment it has to be good!

My glib answer would be "ain't it the truth!"

But I won't do that.

Instead I will say - within the difference is the very reason to be - there you are!

And Sally - we are ALWAYS looking over your shoulder in a sense. We care and worry and want to make certain you know we are listening to what you say - and how you are. And that...

wellll...

You love us?

And we love you...

It is a dream of mine, but I need to write several more and I don't decide when or what to write - it just comes to me and I place it here.

Love ya,

      I guess you do have a good point. It's just hard to try and not have the same meals over and over again.

      Hi   I’ll weigh in on being picky about food.  Yes, and I was brought up that way.  We didn’t have to eat everything our parents ate.  They had a number of things they ate that they figured we wouldn’t eat, an acquired taste things or one or the other didn’t like them too.   even as an adult there are many things I won’t eat.  In my defense, there are different things my wife won’t eat.   the weird thing is that after being in E, my tastes have changed.  Sweet, sour, salty or bland, if I eat or drink too much of any one thing and I have to counter act it.   Willow

      I have shared my doses and levels a lot and no one has said anything. Yeah I put alarms on my phone to make sure I don't miss a dose. I tend to forget a lot of stuff on what needs to be done. I have been also using the calendar on my phone a lot. I missed an appointment because I didn't put it in my calendar.

      Feeling better than I did yesterday

      It's official. My doctor wants me retested after the last results (too high). The test, that she scheduled, was likely too close to the dose. She did tell me to keep the increased dose instead of reverting to my old one, probably because my "too high" wasn't that high. I don't know what the forum's stance is on results, knowing full well the rules against sharing dosage, so I'll keep those under wraps until I know if it's OK to share those. Less to say, it was over the range she feels comfortable with by about 50%, but taken a day earlier than the midpoint value she was expecting. Grains of salt everywhere!   Of course I messed everything up too, missing my dose for the first time, yesterday. I had to re-reschedule the lab I setup yesterday to Monday from Saturday after taking my shot this morning to avoid the same issue with the testing. I woke up and thought, "Thursday, what do I have to do for work today? OH -crap-, IT'S THURSDAY! I missed my shot yesterday!"   Anyhoo. Question for the ladies: does anyone else get a mild zen-like high after their shots/doses? My brain feels lighter and I'm happier and I feel a lot more girlie this morning. 💃

      I'm into my fourth month of HRT and just titrated up in dosage after my last checkup. This is my life. 🤭   I have yet to grow out of my B cup bras, but I have noticed more fullness, having started with gynecomastia. I am seeing less gapping in bras with my right breast, which has always been smaller than my left. My areolae are slightly pronounced/projected now, that are larger but not vastly greater in circumference, and I have noticed little to no nipple changes beyond their painful sensitivity.

      -It's not a sprint it's an endurance.  -It won't happen overnight. -Seek a gender therapist. -You might lose a lot of support but hang in there. If they truly loved and cared about you they would stay. -Retail therapy helps and plus it builds your wardrobe and shoes. -Makeup is an artwork. It takes lots of practice to do it right and watch YouTube videos on how to put it on or someone who is knowledgeable. -You are going to have roller coaster emotions so don't rush anything.

      You have grown more breast tissue than most some only get one size and that is it. I went from 42C to 42DD but I'm also taking supplements. It's risky to take the supplements but to me it's worth the risk.
