I really really appreciate those of you who've reached a point of certainty and conviction about your selves. It's beautiful.
And trach, I understood exactly what you posted, and I feel the same way. I don't want to miss out on any part of the lives I'm privileged to share here.
I was only speaking about myself in my post Courage - it was a rare moment of 'me-ness' - there was no criticism of you or anyone else, implied.
There seems to be a major disconnect with the way you see yourself and the way, for example, I see you...but I've been on the other side of that, and I accept that as a given.
I still claim the right to think of you as highly as I do, though
