This is my Introduction.  Please read it.

I am Michelle

Female
Anxious
Wanting to be who I am
Sexy
Romantic
Afraid to not be me
Not afraid to desire what I have known all along
Crawling out from the inside of not Michelle
Wearing her ankle bracelet


I am not Michelle
Too many tubes and wires
Too long hiding
Too hurt and afraid
Puzzling over the choices and roadmaps
Puzzling over the feelings pushed down for so long
Looking at regrets for "what if" moments

I am Michelle
The woman I long to be
The woman I am
The woman I will be
The woman who aches to be whole

Michelle James

Sarah L.

You are what you aspire to be.
You are A woman with a new sense of direction.
You are begining to see the light
You will no longer dwell on the pain
here you are among friends, among sisters
you are understood
you are now home

You are not unusual
you are not inadquate or strange

You are simply you
you are if not anything else "Michelle"
