Thanksgiving: Reasons to be Thankful

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day, 2005 and I have so many reasons to be thankful!
  • I'm thankful that the fates brought Michele to me, and thankful that she arrived into my life at a time when I was open and ready to receive her;
  • I'm thankful for the love and support of my family;
  • I'm thankful for the love and support of my friends;
  • I'm thankful for a workplace, employers, and coworkers who made my transition easy, even in the absence of gender identity or gender expression being mentioned in our EEO statement;
  • I'm thankful for the strong housing market that gave me the means to pay for my SRS;
  • I'm thankful for the skill and compassion of Dr. Toby Meltzer and the warmth and compassion of everyone associated with him;
  • I'm thankful that the Transgender Education Association was there when I needed it and I'm glad that I've been able to give back to the community.

For this, and so much more, I am thankful. Holiday wishes to you all!

  • I really like thanksgiving because it's a really good time to reflect on the blessings that you have received throughout the year. It's also a good opportunity to be with your family and friends.

"To be no one but yourself - in a world which is doing
its best night and day, to make you everybody but
yourself - means to fight the hardest battle which any
human being can fight, and never stop fighting."
