"We are One"

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. True words, even if they have been repeated thousands of times. So where does one start a blog when they have taken steps already? At the beginning or where they are now? Obviously starting at the beginning makes sense, but I don't think it serves a lot of purpose here and now.

Where am I? Well, physically I'm in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I grew up on a small cattle farm 50 miles from Winnipeg in a family who gave me everything a kid needs - love, rules, food on the table and a roof over their head. And to quote Jeff Foxworthy "You know what? My Mama was Great, My Daddy was Great, I'm just a s***head." I hate people who blame their actions on things their parents did. I am who I am because they loved me and because of the actions I have done. So being T* is not their fault! Being T* IS NO PARENT'S FAULT EVER!

Wow, that was a sideways rant... just warning you, this is how I roll! ;)

Anyway, right now I'm married with a 3 month old son and both my wife and I have been seeing a therapist over my transgenderism for about a month. I have been taking saw palmetto for about that long. I think my wife will stay, and I hope she does, but who knows?

So that's the primer. More to come!

Sweetheart !!! - Its a great sign - You are self accountable.... / Sometimes we get hurt from people we care for very much - In my case it was all about "School" - I had a very hard struggle - My brother who was close in age sailed through with no problem - He is a criminal lawyer today - The differances in the way I was treated and the loss of love I suffered - Sticks with me to this day,,,,,,
People are not perfect not are parents - But - "YES" - I will always love my parents, for the same reasons you love yours.... / All the best - Shirley :)

Felicia, I like your perspective. BTW, I have been taking Saw Palmetto for 10 years as it keeps the prostate healthy, which is something we want. Being T is a gift from God, most have not figured it out, mainly us. I am with you sister to help in anyway I can.

Hugs,
Marsha

Judy - We're planning Masquerade's year end Gala for mid-march if you wanted to attend! And we would love to see you regardless!

Shirley - I do hold myself accountable. People who don't look in the mirror drive me crazy!

Marsha - I just bumped my Saw Palmetto up to 2000 mg a day. I like the effects so far (although how much is mental?) but I'm really looking forward to being on them a while and then - dum dum da da! - HORMONES!

Thank you for the reminder about parents. I tell them in a couple of hours. My kids know, and they know it is not their fault either. My Fex (future ex wife) knows and puts the blame squarely on me. It is not blame, it just is.

Thank you for the introduction. I look forward to more in the future. And, let's befriend.

Hugs,
Janine
