“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!

“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...
Let It Go!
, , Media Review, 22
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

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...
Acknowledge that like EVERY human being, you are a person of great worth and great promise, and you deserve the chance to find happiness and joy in the world.
Sadly, neither of my parents ever got the chance to meet the 5th daughter they never knew they had, for she was too afraid to show herself. They each at different times found out about my dressing but I wasn’t yet ready to admit to myself much less to others the depth of the fe...
Well the site is currently running like a well-oiled machine, and so I’ll close this out for now, but thanks to the down time. I was reminded of how precious the gift of the site has been and will continue to be.
But recently, I came to feel that I could wait no more. I had to let the girl within to come into the fore. No longer would she be content to dwell within the night For she deserved to boldly step into the morning light.
For many of us in the transgender community, it is during the winter that we can become more active in our dressing as there are many more opportunities with the colder weather for wearing our desired clothing underneath coats and sweaters

RED PATENT HEELS & OTHER INANITIES August 16, 2019
Recently, I have had some time to work on deferred projects. It occurred to me that I still want to continue to grow in my understanding of my CD propensity and to know where it will take me as I grow older. I have had this proclivity for as long as I can remember and have been ...

Coming Out at Age 61 August 15, 2019
On August 1st, after 50 years of crossdressing, this girly girl finally came out of the closet and into public view. It was a bit like a butterfly emerging from a chrysalis. Here was Annie, the butterfly, coming to greet the world. I had scheduled a makeover at Macy’s in Pittsb...
