once again im back

[Brie009]

hello all,
          Watching the Oprah show Thurs  with Kim Reed reaally stirred up alot of thought and  shattered hopes. That has brought my return here. I have been so closeted  for the past 10 years after a failure at transition.  I am very envious of her and and to a point jealous of her success . Im here to open up alil bout the person in hiding  more later ladies and gents

Hey

welcome back, enjoy yourself etc etc.

We all envy at some point, don't let it overun you though, and keep the positives going. Think 'i'm going to be that style' rather than 'i want to be that style'. It's what I'm starting to try and do.

Welcome back to Susan's, Brie. 

Be sure to look under the Announcements heading.  There you will find the rules we live by in this little world of ours: "Site Terms of Service and Rules to Live By", "Standard Terms and Definitions", and "Post Ranks".  Look through the other stuff there, too.

It is often difficult to allow ourselves to become who we really are.  Transition can be a very difficult path.  Don't envy those who've managed it; aspire to make it too.  If it is something you need for you, then do it for you.  (Oops.  Sorry about the unasked-for advice. )

Welcome back and happy exploring.

Hi Brie and welcome back. Coming back here is a start. I just want say that you don't need to be ashamed of who you are. Setbacks are only temporary
