Hey All,
I have decided to revive my small storefront here along Member's Blog Avenue after my old one was lost to the great crash at the beginning or 2024! 🌻
As a fairly longtime member of the forum here (since 2016) many of you know me and thus...the general philosophy and positive attitude I apply to the process of transition and the building of a new life that most of you reading this have found yourself considering or fully engaged in! 🌻
This forum, like the world, changes by the day... So, for those that don't know me... Hello!... I began on a fast track to transition 10+ years ago at age 52... In opposition to the U2 song... I have found what I am looking for! and... It is far too good to keep to myself!!! 💕🤗💕
My goal, is to help all those out there to find what they need in all of this as well... To see past the fear that comes with change... To move towards a true connection to life, to yourself, to others and to the world around you🌻
It all begins with a simple decision... The decision to be yourself...🌻
I am not sure what my little corner of the world here will look like yet... When I finally began moving towards a life that reflected the truth within me... I found that everything meant more to me... art... philosophy... history...poetry... spirituality... quantum physics... the nature of consciousness and reality because, these things are the very stuff of life and, my life now meant something real and true to me...
I found myself finally excited and hopeful about what life had in store for me... Here I am... over a decade later and my enthusiasm has only grown... I think this place will reflect all those aspects of life's journey and... I hope, some good conversation that will encourage and lend hope to all who come here in days yet to be... seeking hope that they too, can decide to be themselves... I am going to skip to the good part... YES!!!... You can!... All fears can be conquered... All challenges can be navigated... An amazing life patiently awaits your arrival! 🌻
I will close out this first post with a video I posted a few years back... it is based on an ancient poem of unknown origin called Thunder Perfect Mind... (some think it may reach back to 350 BC Greece) It explores the paradoxes, themes and depths of the feminine experience... In this case it was brought to life by Ridley Scott on behalf of Prada!... Enjoy! 💕
Onward We Go!
Ashley 😀💕🌻
