Transgender Awareness Week


 I decided to post this in honor of one of my oldest, bestest friends.

I'm not here to politic or explain, just accept.

I know my friend well enough that I understood when he called to tell me, and I'll never forget the moment I really saw HIM.

Watching him grow and find a sense of freedom since is all the reason I need to believe it was the right choice for him, his truth.


Yesterday, the Human Rights Campaign marked 10 years of tracking violence against transgenders.

November 20 is Transgender Day of Remembrance.  This year, 32 lives have been lost, although the number of deaths are likely under-reported.
