Back when I was a kid Helen Reddy sang a song. I'd sing it loud and strong and then shushed by my mother.
The words are important and thought provoking. Since the 70's this song has been at my heart and it helped me cut through the bull that others tossed into my life. Now, a year after surgery, the song still brings tears to my eyes and a sence of pride.

I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back an' pretend
'cause I've heard it all before
And I've been down there on the floor
No one's ever gonna keep me down again

CHORUS
Oh yes I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I've paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can do anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman

You can bend but never break me
'cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
'cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul

CHORUS

I am woman watch me grow
See me standing toe to toe
As I spread my lovin' arms across the land
But I'm still an embryo
With a long long way to go
Until I make my brother understand

Oh yes I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I've paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to I can face anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman
Oh, I am woman
I am invincible
I am strong

FADE
I am woman
I am invincible
I am strong
I am woman

I am Julie, I am strong, I can cut through the bull, I take any thing people throw at me and still stand tall and proud.
I am woman, hear me roar!

Girls rule, boys drool.
If I keep a green bough in my heart, then the singing bird will come.

I totally want to sing that now. Once I get my girl voice all complete I'm going to have to work on my singing voice.

Honestly, you might think your lives suck, that its intollerable to live. Been there. Done that.
You and only you can gain control over your life.

Here is another song you can use.
Accused of sexually abusing my 2 year old daughter, the law and the judges, thought that as a "Guy" in a dress, it might be true.
I fought in family court, I was really close to being charged and convicted. I lost visitation, but fought even harder.
I listened to this song, thinking what she was saying was true. It is. You have remarkable strenght with in you, if you just look inside.

(wish I could get the embed to work...)

Take a deep breath, close your eyes and ignore the rabble outside. What do you want to do. Is it real? Is it a jerk off fantacy? Maybe living a gay life style might work, maybe cross dressing on occasion. GRS isn't for every one. Its not some thing you can come back from. Be realistic with the truth you find inside.
Its not a race, its not a competition, its your life your working with.
Think wisely Grasshopper.
