A few years ago, I stumbled onto this site .... confused, too many questions, and so unsure of the path that lay ahead.  Compelled to walk down a path in what seemed like a dark forest, I nonetheless ventured, so happy now that I found the courage to do so. 

I charged through my transition in what seems like record time, never pausing to look back and have found a peace that I never knew existed.  Despite all I have lost in life going through this journey, I have found a sense of contentment I have never known.

My hope in returning is that I can return to others the wonderful support afforded me and pass on the knowledge and wisdom I have gained, including the links to some wonderful research that makes it all "make sense".  That said, we are all individuals and all must find their own path.  I just hope to make it easier for someone and afford them the chance to find their own ray of sunshine after the violent storm.
