the world looks so bright when i meet people who aren't judging.

Fortunately the world is full of them. Unfortunately those that judge often make so much noise they drown out the others.

Thanks for the great story, Taka.
Have you read my short story The Eve of Triumph?

"Oops sorry, I didn't mean to split the class into boys vs girls, you all just kinda sat like that"
After my teacher separated our class into discussion groups the week after I'd come out to her. I was on the dude side and it was awesome. She was young with lots of tattoos, and when I told her about the name change she was super excited for me. I miss her :D

I had a lot of people when I was in the awkward -not even close to passing- stage say things like "You are the strongest person I know". That people would even be friendly to me during that time was amazing. The ratio of kind things said vs ugly was easily 100-1. The 1% negative did hurt but I just had to think about the positive and how much happier I was.

Last week I was complimented on my hairstyle and twice on my nails, irridescent orange shellac.  Felt great.
