Title: Sailormars September update!
Post by: SailorMars1994 on September 10, 2017, 08:20:06 PM
To anyone who cares:

Life is getting unusually good! As most of you know I am moving to Manitoba at months end (even though we were suppose to be there like 2 months ago) and driving westwards there for a week, so I should be there in early October! and already good things are happening. After putting out a few job applications I have gotten nearly each one calling me back, telling me to see them the minute I get there with one employeer telling me that given all they know, I got the job!! In addition I just found out tonight after a web-cam interview that I have a place of my own .. or well, I will be living with roomates (two other females the same age!) but at the very least I can finally get out of my parents and get back to independent living. I feel ok, healthy and safe enough to do so and truth be told, although I will probably be super anxious about the process I, at the end of the day can not wait! They also know I am trans and are very open about it :)!

My job options are all over the place and truth be told I will take anything that gives me at the very least a 32 hour work week!. In addition to the new place and job(s) that are very likely here already  I say my mental health is so good too. I feel at one with myself, something I struggled with for a very long time and arguably never felt this calm and attached to me! I feel calm, the once daily battle of ''does it matter nothing will ever work the way I want'' has turned into ''I am quite young with potential gifts I havent even tapped into, maybe I can use this for the greater good''. In addition to these things my own bio-logical dad called me a trail blazer last Monday so yeah. I have no complaints to give, and I hope no one takes this as gloating. But September 2017 is turning in to the greatest month in probably well over a decade, lets see what October brings! Hope everyone here is doing well!, sorry I am not as active as I normally am but I am still here and love you all!!

Hugs!

I doubt if anyone will feel that you are gloating.  We love to hear happy stories and good news.  For those not in a happy place right now, it gives them hope for the future.

Gloating? Naw. Pride of accomplishment. Absolutely. Is it warranted? Absolutely. Just by your enthusiasm we get a sense of what can be accomplished. Personally, I love these success stories. All the best.
