A little bit of cheer for all my friends in the TG community and any other kink you have!
I hope that this post finds you, your family and friends .. all blessed with good tidings and joy on this day that carries so many emotions with it, both good and bad. I just wanted to let you know that you CAN feel like this isn't the most wonderful time of the year. Don't feel guilty for doing so, if that is where your mind is at.
Yin and Yang. Balance in the force. You take the good, you take the bad, you take them both, and there you have, the facts of life. Shit may seem like it's stacked against you, but you must remember that the bullfighter does NOT always win!
So please do acknowledge the things in life that make all the trials and tribulations worthwhile. It's only another week until the year refreshes itself, and tomorrow is always another day to move forward and grow towards being the best you that you can be! Reflect on all the difficulties, but honor the challenges you've faced and overcome. There isn't anything you can't do. I'm sure of it!
And while this second caption technically stars me, it's more of a representation of all of us, and how our lives are a journey, and at some point we have to let go of some of the baggage and be the best "us" that we can be. Dwelling on stuff that doesn't matter can drain us, and isn't conducive to living "in the now." Recognize that it's made us who we are, but it doesn't define what we can still be.
So, whether you celebrate a Merry Christmas, a Happy Yule, light a menorah, etc ... I hope that you can truly be yourself going forward. Make that commitment and let your true light shine brightly!
Of COURSE I am going to fuckin' play this song. Some of you will RIOT! Attica! Attica!
