The Real Transition....

Well I survived the day lol... wasn't a real chore just a day of boredom really. I had a new girl ask me today about transition was it exciting, all about the surgery and she asked me what she should expect.  This is what I said to her.

Transition is a period of growth and learning, it isn't just about hormones and operations and clothes. The hormones are nothing more then a tool, and the surgery is just a small step in the grand scheme of things. Transition is so much more and I feel sorry for those that rush to just get to a surgery and that's all they think about. Because after that what do they have. 

You get to learn what the other side lives like, you step into a new world. New Roles and actually live and breathe it. you feel for the first time the power of a compliment, the power of a smile, you feel how words and action can make your day .... or hurt and put you down. You feel how different it is how men and women interact with you.  How you feel when you make others laugh and cry when you share a story or memories. 

Transition is about making new friends, new choices and new paths in life.....
Transition is about going on new career paths and trying something you always wanted to do....
Transition is about re inventing yourself to being what you want to be ....
Transition is about making plenty of new little choices .....
Transition most importantly is temporary and just a phase to the next point of your life.... Then its time for a new transition
 
Transition is not just a stage for trasngenders its for everyone on one scale or another, you just have to make the choice to change. You just have to want to change, learn and adapt. You can work at what ever you want,  learn to be anything you want, and really just be a better you.

You just have to want to change :)
