I just wanted to share with everyone the fact that I finally have been able to have my name legally changed. It is really exciting and I have been looking forward to this event for the past ten months.

Also on a side note the Transgender community in my area has been expanding. There is now over 30 of us! We have been able to host several open mic nights, a few pot lucks, bi-weekly support meetings, a Transgender Educational Summit, and our next order of business is presenting a Transgender Education Summit for the HRC in Nashville. Ten months ago, when I first started transitioning, I would have never guessed that my life would be so meaningful and full of purpose. However, since transitioning I have felt so empowered and so authentic that I often times wonder why did I wait so long.

I hope all of  you are safe and well, where ever you are, and that you know that you are loved.

"The age of Socratic man is past: crown yourselves with ivy, grasp the thyrsus and do not be amazed if tigers and panthers lie down fawning at your feet. Now dare to be tragic men, for you will be redeemed. You shall join the Dionysiac procession from India to Greece! Gird yourselves for a hard battle, but have faith in the miracles of your god!"
- Friedrich Nietzsche
