Welcome back.

I've missed you and wondered how you're doing.  IIRC, you were not in an enviable place, last I heard.

FWIW, you never hurt my feelings, though sometimes I hurt for you.

Best news I've had in a while. It just wasn't the same without you.

My gender deviates from all the narratives, it is special, it is my own.  You all have your own too.

While I was away, I transitioned at work to genderqueer, then androgyne, then to female.  I upgraded that job but won a victory for trans while I was there.  Orlando's business has a new precedent set, a law tested, a victory for us.  However the economics of it, and the SOC nonconforming insurance policies, was not sustainable.

I am in another city now, a place I will not disclose, a place I know very well, it is a part of my history, of something I had lost, and found again.  I know many trans both binary and nonbinary.  I help those who can benefit from what I know.  And I have reconnected with the  theater world, and they know me, recognized me, opened the door to me.  As myself, but they only know me female now.  They knew me as someone different before.  Now they see another part of me.  I present in many ways.  All across the spectrum.  Each presentation is a different part of me, but I am the same, I am one gender, I am a nonbinary transsexual.  I reveal what I care too, too whoever I wish.  I am showing "she" to you here on this forum.  I am more than this.  Yet, she is me.

Yes much has happened, I am successful now, and happy, and still married, and very trans.  I have raced on the track and done many things.  Lived a life most could never dream of living.  It is a wonderful thing.

I have seen where the endgames are, I have seen the agony of our people. I see it  up close.  Every week.   And so I have become a bit of an activist.  Just a little bit.  Where it can matter.   I make a difference in peoples lives, on the internet, and face to face.  Its amazing what a little love can do.   You must make a difference too, first to yourselves, then to others.

You must learn to be diamonds.  Because you are diamonds.

I won't be saying much here.  But I thought you would like to know.

Nails out and hair down

I'm glad to hear that things are going better for you now.

(And if you're ever in the NYC area, PM me, maybe we can get together over dinner or something.)

With all the heat and crushing pressure we endure, what else could we become?

I think its too early for me to be back, the feelings are too deep.

I am sorry.

I will stop in from time to time, when I feel ok.

Blessings.

I know you too well.  You will come back and you will seek to support others and to share your experience.  This is a good thing.  While many of us have left this forum, we do still care and look in from time to time.  We know the challenge of being trans and the nature of being non binary.  Be well.

Safe travels
