I saw two pictures the other day in chat; one of a fire with roaring flames and the other glowing embers. It struck me that those images are representative of the lives many of us lead. For many, the kindling had always been there inside us, early in our lives—it just neede...
As the world continues to face one of its biggest challenges, I felt compelled to write something encouraging. So many things weigh heavily on us all-not just the COVID virus itself. The medical and health risks-especially among the older members of society (and the CDH community...
I was reading about the Christmas season and was suddenly struck with the thought that I needed to write this article. Many of us, regardless of our views on religion enjoy the holiday season as a time to celebrate the giving nature of humanity. And as I thought about all the...
We all want the world to hurry up and advance far enough so it recognizes that each of us, regardless of how we present or express our “inner persona,” is worthy of respect and kindness. I think it needs to begin within our own circle of friends and acquaintances. I read som...
Trans-Siberian Orchestra Lyrics (posted for reflective thoughts as expressed below) “Not The Same” I heard a note In the dark Where it slipped into my mind And somehow still remains Time comes and goes Ebbs and flows And somehow that single note Still rings on and sus...
“I Am A Rock” by Paul Simon, released 1965 A winter’s day In a deep and dark December I am alone Gazing from my window To the streets below On a freshly fallen, silent shroud of snow I am a rock I am an island I’ve built walls A fortress, steep and migh...
Fallen Not Forgotten by Ray Boltz, release 1998 He stood beside his daddy And watched the soldiers marching by It was Veterans Day and he wondered Why there were tears in daddy’s eyes; Later they laid flowers Beside a monument of stone- He said, Son-My daddy went to figh...
“This Is Me” (from “The Greatest Showman” soundtrack, written by Benj Pasek & Justin Paul, released 2017) I’m not a stranger to the dark Hide away, they say ‘Cause we don’t want your broken parts I’ve learned to be ashamed of al...
A good friend of mine from Crossdresser Heaven named Jennifer Ruby told me about a song that was inspirational to her. The song is Steve Azar’s “I Don’t Have To Be Me (‘Til Monday)” released in 2001. The lyrics are: I got me a brand new car waiting in the driveway...
When I first heard the song “Let It GO” from the Disney movie Frozen, it struck me how well the lyrics describe the journey of exploration many of us are on with regards to how we express our feminine side. (After searching to be sure I had the words correct, I discovered I...
Let me start out by saying that everyone’s experiences are different. I can only provide you with my perspective. My first CD/TG conference experience was Southern Comfort (SCC) in Ft. Lauderdale, FL in September 2016. I had only made the first tentative forays out in public in...
I saw an ad for an online university and one particular line stood out to me. The announcer’s voice was trying to be encouraging when he said, “Talent is evenly distributed, but opportunities are not.” As I heard those words, I realized that while they SOUNDED good at a gla...
While she may have been there before, the first time I heard Cyn was when I was 11 years old. As a boy approaching puberty, my thoughts were turning to girls as often happens. But in the midst of those thoughts about dating a girl at school, I heard a small voice whisper-“what ...
Well, another year has passed and I attended another conference, this time my 2nd Esprit Conference in the lovely small town of Port Angeles, WA-about two hours west of Seattle on the Strait of Juan De Fuca. (You can read my articles about last year’s trip by scrolling back thr...
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?
Cynthia relates her experiences before and during Keystone, and in getting together with fellow travelers on a journey we all share.
After sharing a travelogue of her adventures traveling to and attending Esprit 2017, Cyn takes a few moments to reflect on her experiences and the impact that they have had on her life.
We all want to be who we believe we should be. Sometimes becoming who we are also means 'unbecoming' parts of who we are.
We are quite accustomed to giving gifts to others but how often do we think of giving a real gift to ourselves? Not a material gift like those we so often buy for ourselves but a deeper gift, the gift of acceptance.
Some final thoughts on the trip to SCC in Florida
Crossdresser Support and Advice, Crossdressing Experiences 8 I’ve been back from the trip now for several weeks and yet it seems like it was just over yesterday. It was back in January that Samantha G and I bucked up each other’s courage and signed up for this year’s Southern Comfort Conference (SCC- a TG/CD conference) in Ft. Lauder...

Learning to love yourself completely August 6, 2020 Introduction This is something I wrote in the very early stages of my transition; at a stage where I was becoming increasingly focused on my life path up to that point.
