BE YOURSELF


It's funny how people grow older and finally "find" themselves. Like when a guy, who back in the day acted a little too lady-like, then 20 years later he's a full blown transgendered man living as a woman! Everyone around him growing up knew he was different, but somehow he didn't feel secure enough to outwardly prance around in makeup and dresses. I'm sure the main reason was FEAR. Fear of being ridiculed by classmates. Fear that society wouldn't "claim your kind" publicly and in a lit of cases, behind the glass door. But later on somehow he got up enough strength to put the lashes on, and the pantyhose, and embody the very essence of what a woman should be. [I was a friends house and this subject came up about one of their old high school classmates. ]

People kill me not being themselves. You sacrifice many years of your life pretending. Wake up and realize that your life is your own. Your own to do what you want without worry about whether or not you will be judged. Everyone has their own issues. No one is perfect. Start accepting others for who they are. Who are you to judge?

I AM ME...
