living as a woman

Comment by Julia Giannopoulos on October 21, 2012 at 5:55pm

Joanna,

I'm very pleased that you are experiencing what you have needed to experience.

Take it one day at a time but also work on a plan if you feel that transition is in your future.

Congratulations on being you.

Thanks Julia!

When you begin living as you should, the world opens up with possibilities...

Our futures are unwritten epics... waiting for us to step into a great one. May yours be fabulous!

Congratulations Joanna. Hopefully one of these days the work aspect may let you be yourself full time.

I agree completely with you about the euphoria of being your true self.  I hardly even ever think about my previous life.

Congratulations, dear Joanna!

I can read your joy now being yourself more and more in alldays life in your words and I'm so happy for you! And I can share your emotions in a certain way as I've made the same wonderful experiences - not outside as I'm not out yet - but since I've started living as Julia completely in my house more than a year ago. The first time I always had the fear neighbours might see me, but today the fear has gone and as long as possible I am myself in my house every day from afternoon/early evening till next morning ... I hope soon loosing also my doubts about being able to pass as Julia also outside in my hometown as I usually go out yet as myself for a walk sometimes in my holidays and each time enjoy it making such a walk ...

Love & many hugs to you!

Being what we feel inside has that effect, living as we are meant to be makes all the difference.

Being happy is what matters.

Congrats to you!  As long as you are sincerely happy in your heart that's all that matters. The rest falls in line.

Thank you ladies for all the wonderful feedback. Its still not obvious to me what to do in terms of transitioning or not. I always find it remarkable when some of you are so sure so early in your lives. Maybe that's a sign I'm not really TS....

 Joanna,

Perhaps it's a sign that you haven't explored your soul deep enough in order to truly know yet.

Joanna, 

Forget about signs... being TS is not predescribed box that you have to fit in... Its actually a definition that struggles to be loose enough to accommodate all who are of that.  One person's version of what it means to be TS will not necessarily jive with another's.  I would continue to focus on being your authentic self and continue to observe who and how you are when you are being that. That will tell you all you really need to know. If that feels like being TS to you - then it is - even if your story is not the same as anyone elses. We all live lives that are unique to us. We relate to others to gain understanding - but may have similar or dis-similar stories to them. Our differences do not in the slightest way diminish the importance or truth or rightness of our own story. To us - it is really the only one that matters.... and you are free to call it whatever you feel works best.

:)
