I HAD ALMOST FORGOTTEN THIS
This was me 3-4 years ago.
My family and I went out to a restaurant for my birthday.
AND. I. PASSED.
I. PASSED. AS. MALE.
JUST ONE PRONOUN THAT NO ONE ELSE CAUGHT BUT HOLY FUCKING SHIT.
I PASSED WHEN MY WHOLE FAMILY WAS TREATING ME AS FEMALE.
THANK YOU LOVELY WAITRESS.

Dreamer Mondays: I dream of happiness
From Dreamer-Mondays.Tumblr.com:
I dream of being happy again. I dream of not worrying about having a safe, warm place to sleep and not worrying about having nutritious food in my belly. I dream about having a dog, and not worrying about keeping it up to date on its shots & registration. I dream of having regular dental & medical checkups; I dream about having the money to visit my grandparents and travel.
In my dreams I look for somewhere I can be close to nature again. In my dreams I look for loving relationships not stressed by money. In my dreams everyone has their basic needs met. In my dreams I can travel from tribe to tribe, coast to coast and be an ambassador for my kind; I can learn about their cultures and teach them about my own.
In my dreams I’m surrounded by artists again; in my dreams I seek to master storytelling; in my dreams I am surrounded by dancers and artists and actors and in my dreams I live somewhere between the bland reality and the magnificent theater of the mind. In my dreams I can go places with others that I could never go by myself.
In my dreams, I am happy again. In my dreams I feel pain, but it is the pain of the ages… In my dreams I have forgiven, and I know where to place my anger. In my dreams I can heal others. In my dreams I can let others find me and heal me and help me to grow.
Who Is She
Who is this girl
and how did she come into my life?
I don’t know, but when I’m in my lowest low I can feel her skin against me. In the lowest of my valleys, in the darkest of my times it’s like She’s God to me… holding me close and letting me know I’m loved. In the darkest shadows with nothing else there, she’s there. Who is she? And how did she make it here? I don’t know, but I don’t know where I’d be without her.
How did I come to love her? Who is this girl, and how did I come to love her?
I don’t know, and sometimes I feel bad for chasing after her, but I was struck and pulled… somehow she got a hook in me and she was beautiful, and I didn’t know who she was but I wanted to know… I wanted to look into her and know her.
God, who is she?
But I look into her now and I know her. We’re both scared now and sometimes, but sometimes… aside from the pain and our foolish careless bumbling youth, I see her… I see her… I told her she was beautiful in the dark and she said, “but it’s dark!” and I hushed her and said, “shhh… I see you. And you are beautiful…”
God, who is she?
I love her so much and sometimes I wonder if I keep on asking myself these questions because I’ll never really have the answers, I’ll never really have the words to describe her, the words to explain who she is, deep down. I’m learning to write volumes on it now, in my head, but it’s because I know her, and I want to know her, and for some god-unknown mysterious reason she is the direction of the universe I want to know everything about.
Wow…
Why?
“Stand Tall” — Original Composition Feb 2012
I know my voice isn’t the best, but the fact that I’m composing and singing on video is pretty amazing.
I wrote this last week when I was freaking out about my sexual orientation lecture… I didn’t feel prepared, and I didn’t feel good enough, and, and, and…. This is what came out.
To all of you who struggle with the same, with standing tall, here are my words for you.
