    Thanks hopeful, sue, keepinghope...

    Keepinghope... When TGT happens we all know that things are going to change. Some of that change is predictable... a lot of it however is completely unpredictable... especially how it will change us as people.

    If it wasn't so God-damned terrifying it would be fascinating.

    There is a tendency for most of us to assume that the change will be for the worse. For many of us though the change is definitely for the better.

    We were forced to live a lie... someone else's lie. Being out from under that lie is a change for the better... even if it doesn't feel like that right now.

    Thank you for the thank you

    You have a future. A good one. It begins as a flicker of hope. Nurture it until it becomes a dream and when you are strong enough you will make it a reality. NEVER give up.
