Blindly Faithful

This may not be as big nor as bold as my return post, but hopefully it will be as equally interesting as anything else I have posted.

Phases, life is full of them, whether they take years to fully envelop your life or just a couple of days we have all hit them. I can happily safe phase 2 of my changing myself has started, and well I can not express the sheer joy I feel about and the nervousness I can't seem to shake. Turning back is a luxury that is best afforded to people who have the time to do so, if given no time this luxury is just but a fond thought of control. Dismissing such a little trigger as 'turning back' gives a person both power and the art of a new form of control; a control much more real and deeply more satisfying. That tang of reality snapping back into your warming grasp is something soothingly cold. I find that 'turning back' a sensation of a cold wind hitting your face; oddly refreshing but devastating to all senses that dislike that cold.

Now that I have that cool wind bashing against my face more steadily then regularity in an old person's routine I can surely stand proud and realize that my life is something of a dream. Yes scary could be a great word to describe it, but that fear is oooooh so addictive.

And this would be the extra little part I facebooked about! Something I don't normally do, mostly because not a lot of people read my blog, but I hope the few that do, pass the word and keep it rotating. Signing petitions is something kinda fun for me lately, since I have started signing a few more coming way than normal, and this one in particular well it strikes a very unique and close cord for me. Equality is something so terribly basic yet most of us never ever witness it in its purity. Gays, lesbians, Transgenders, Transvestites, and everything in between suffer with this daily and regularly. Gay's in all forms, and genders are breaking bounds daily but it is those in between groups that are still suffering. As standing proud and part of the trans community I can say its deadly scary knowing that the simple protection that most people receive, could be wave because of my gender identification.

There is a bill circulating to help those simple rights be enforced for my community and make them safer in all respects, against hate crimes and the like. I sadly can say I missed the start of said bill but I'll be damned sure to help the end of it. I have personally sent a message to our MLA Ron Canon and I feel any of my friends should do the same, expressing their opinion on this. And my friends across Canada need to be doing this as well; this is something that needs to over flow the boxes of local politicians to make them see it. They need to realize their voters expect them to do something and support what they feel needs backing. I will link the petition sight in my blog and I hope you all do this tiny favor for me and help this bill succeed.
