A Whole New World
As I pondered where my life journey has taken me these past twelve months and where the coming year will lead me, the Disney song, “A Whole New World”, came to mind. Like the lyrics to Frozen, this song describes the variety of feelings and emotions I have been feeling as I explore the part of me that had been hidden for so many decades.I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet rideA whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no or where to go
Or say we’re only dreamingA whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I’m way up here, it’s crystal clear
That now I’m in a whole new world with you
Now I’m in a whole new world with youUnbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond skyA whole new world
Don’t you dare close your eyes
A hundred thousand things to see
(Hold your breath, it gets better)I’m like a shooting star
I’ve come so far
I can’t go back
To where I used to beA whole new world
Every turn a surprise
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment red-letterI’ll chase them anywhere
There’s time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with youA whole new world
That’s where we’ll be
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
For you and meI realize the lyrics were originally meant to describe the feelings of new love, but they also apply to discovering who you really are inside and letting the world see that person without worrying about the filters our minds place in the way-“What will people think?”,” Am I just being foolish?”, or “What are you THINKING?”. While it IS important to pay attention to the things our heads say, we also need to listen to our hearts and souls as they cry out for the freedom to simply be who we are meant to be-regardless of how we may have been born and the restrictions with which society tries to fence us in.
The freedom to soar through the skies is an incredible feeling, seeing things we had only dreamt in our minds and following those dreams as we let loose the power that each of us has if we look inside ourselves. Over this past year, I have taken steps that I would never have believed I could if you had asked me three years ago. Going out as Cynthia to a museum, to a concert, to the movie, to shop for clothes-and the biggest step of all: spending a week en femme at the Southern Comfort Conference (a large CD/TG conference) in Florida last September. The highlight of that adventure included my first (but certainly NOT my LAST) mani/pedi, several meals out in restaurants, walking and shopping at a major mall, making new friends while hanging with current friends, and even wearing my bikini at the pool on a midnight swim party several times. (There are even rumors that I was seen dancing at the last song they played in the lounge !)
Later in the song, it says” I’ve come so far; I can’t go back To where I used to be”. This is definitely true for me. Though I am still uncertain how far things will go for Cyn on her odyssey, I do know there is no putting her back in the bottle. Having tasted the freedom to soar, her wings won’t be clipped. So what does this mean for you? Well the sky is a huge place, and there’ plenty of room for each and every one of you to join the flock. Whether you are a crossdresser or one who presents as female part or full time or have already or plan to fully transitioned, there is strength in being part of a flock where we can take turns leading and following, The song says it well- “ There’s time to spare; Let me share this whole new world with you. A whole new world
That’s where we’ll be–A thrilling chase, A wondrous place For you and me!Come Fly With Me into 2017!!!
Luv,
CynI once read an article by an artist who was asked the question , “what is the meaning of your art by a patron at a gallery show. His response was to ask the speaker what she saw in the art. After listening to her response, the artist said that is correct. As the speaker was shocked, the artist explained that art will always be in the beholder. What of each of sees and hears may be different , but each is as valid as the other for we all view the world through lens as unique as snowflakes.
How you see such a song describe your experiences is as beautiful as you? Thanx for sharing your experiences with all of us. You are an inspiration to many.
