"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment" ... Ralph Waldo Emerson 🌸

"The individual has always had to struggle from being overwhelmed by the tribe... But, no price is too high for the privilege of owning yourself" ... Rudyard Kipling 🌸

Let go of the things that no longer serve you... Let go of the pretense of the false persona, it is not you... Let go of the armor that you have worn for a lifetime, to serve the expectations of others and, to protect the woman inside... She needs protection no longer.... She is tired of hiding and more courageous than you know... Let her prove that to you....Let her step out of the dark and feel the light upon her face.... amg🌸

We are indeed Jainie!!! ❤️

We are sisters in a family of those who don't settle for the cards they are handed or the game that is dictated that we play... We are those who strip away our protective layers to reveal the truth of who we are and show our truth to world around us... We are forever linked ..You and I... In the kinship and sisterhood that comes from seeking that bold path...

I offer you a favorite quote from Whitman's "Song of the Open Road" because it speaks to me of the places transition takes us and I try to live my life... " Gently, but with undeniable will"


From this hour I ordain myself loos'd of limits and imaginary lines,
Going where I list, my own master total and absolute,
Listening to others, considering well what they say,
Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating,
Gently,but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me.
I inhale great draughts of space,
The east and the west are mine, and the north and the south are mine.

I am larger, better than I thought,
I did not know I held so much goodness.

All seems beautiful to me,
I can repeat over to men and women You have done such good to me I would do the same to you,
I will recruit for myself and you as I go,
I will scatter myself among men and women as I go,
I will toss a new gladness and roughness among them,
Whoever denies me it shall not trouble me,
Whoever accepts me he or she shall be blessed and shall bless me.

Onward we go brave sister!!!

Hello Again Jainie!!!

It warms my heart to see you embracing the essence of your journey my dear sister!!!

I always hope to help others recognize and embrace the powerful side of this journey... The power that comes from self exploration and recognition of who you are and what you seek to express... The power that comes from transformation of a life into what we need it to be... The power of saying "This is me" after a lifetime of hiding... The power that comes from conquering the fears that made us hide all that time...

This journey demands much from us but it gives much as well...

As it said in Whitman's poem... "All seems beautiful to me"

As far as what I am reading at the moment....

I have been working on "Eternal Validity Of The Soul" by Jane Roberts and I am about 3/4 of the way through... It resonates with me strongly and puts into words how I have felt since I was young about what all this life stuff is about! I have been reading a few pages at a time and then I let it soak in!!!

I am also working on some quantum physics stuff... "Beyond Einstein" by Michio Kaku

Onward we go brave sister!!!!

 ;D I just finished, Wake up! A Guide to Spirituality without religion by Sam Harris and I am just staring The Elegant Universe by Brian Greene. I like spirituality especially when I can find stuff that has science to back it up but that does not mean I leave out imagination. [emoji3] I like reading a large array of genres so I ca explore many points of view I can. I think the many points of view adds color to see thing better.

Hey Sister!

Spirituality and science!... Sounds like we are very much on the same page with all this stuff!!! 😀

Like I have said many times around here....

I see transition as a very a spiritual quest... How can we ever feel truly loved if no one has seen who we truly are?... I think transition, at it's core, is an attempt to place ourselves at a point in our life where we can truly give and receive Love... It doesn't get much more spiritual than that! 😀!!!

Love Ya Sis!!!

I have thought of it as a spiritual journey myself and by the way these two pieces of puzzle seem to fit. I look forward to chatting with you more. If you have facebook I would not mind adding a new friend. I'm smiling. it feel good to find someone that think like I do.

@elkie-t Dancing is not something I like to do well unless I am alone and no one is around watching me of course. It is a good idea for those that like it. I have been thinking about giving things that I once did not like a secound change to see if I have changed my mind on it. You know like I hated onions when I was a kid but I tried them again when I was older to realize I like them now kind of thing.
Can be any other hobby where you have to meet and communicate with other people. University of Harvard had a 'case study' where it was stated that people actively investing their time into building social capital (networking with other people) live on average 10 years longer and enjoy their life much more than those who don't. That case study mentioned 'regular church going' as an example of networking vehicle, but I'd say there are plenty other venues.

I myself am introvert and I know I would not like it so I would stay home and read a good book :)
