I try to be a positive influence in a world of negativity about transgender folks. I believe that one kind word does wonders to lift another person's spirits. While there are those who wish to make me invisible, I refuse to be. I go about life with anticipation and joy.
It's wonderful when my friends succeed. Encouragement is greatly needed in the trans community. Offering it gives me much joy. When others share their stories, I am amazed by the honesty and clarity they express. It encourages me because many of them have had it much tougher than I have. They have been a positive influence on me in that they are victors. I am proud to consider them my friends and family.
