Illuminated Shadows
Chapter One I'm not too fond of jobs like this. You know the ones that require you to acquire the target by all means necessary. However, I am not like everyone. I will do what I please and how I please, to hell with my employers.

Transgender Success
Success is often measured by the amount of money and belongings we accumulate in life. I won’t argue that those things aren’t important and helpful, but I measure my life’s success by a different yardstick. I count myself successful even though I really don’t have much money, property, or possessions. My measure of success is the happiness I’ve achieved through successfully transitioning to my correct gender identity. Since my transition, I literally wake up with a smile on my face every single day. Everywhere I go, that joy goes with me because the joy emanates from within.

My coming out Journey
My journey to figure out who I am was a long one. It was long but, in some ways, easier than most coming out journeys. I never really felt different when I was young. I started to notice I was a little different. I was always the friend. It happened almost immediately when I met new people. Getting friend zoned so fast was the first clue. The second was that I was interested in both girls’ and boys’ bodies. It was necessarily sexual at that point.

Let’s Have a Conversation about Gender Identities
Some people might think that the pride movement is only about homosexuality and gender non-conformity. However, this movement is more complex than the actual revindications of the LGBTQ+ communities. Because the exclusions of these people have considerable drawbacks on our societies. And their inclusions give way to a brighter future.

You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination. Leviticus 18:22 A pastor quoted this bible verse when I asked why he thinks same-sex unions are unacceptable.

Live Your Truth!!!
According to some news station I watched about 4 or 5 hours ago maybe slightly longer. There are about 1.4 million people who may identify as transgender whether male or female in the United States that is. The truth is that number I guarantee is way higher than 1.4 million but yet it fluctuates because of so many different factors. Never mind the statistics right now though, let us talk about acceptance, inclusion and love of these 1.4 million children, teens and adults. For whatever reason no one truly seems to accept us as we are in some many areas. Even when these children and teens are not trying to make medical transition at the time.

The Nature of My Love is Not a Choice
I was raised in a very religious household in a very conservative town in Georgia. Whenever someone says that a person isn’t born gay—that it’s a choice—I have to wonder from whom they are getting their intel. It’s always a straight person who says this, and I think, How would you know? What makes you an expert on the complex and drastically unique experiences of all homosexuals everywhere? Please, show me your degree in Homosexual Studies.
