Fascinating. Not often you get to see inside the mind of a child as he or she struggles to cope with a world that doesn't match their internal reality. Thank you for that gift.
That was wonderfully written Miranda. Thanks for making it available for me to listen to as well. I truly appreciate that! I love how you explained exactly how it is growing up trans. People often wonder what the difference is between trans and bi. The difference is that those who are bi don't struggle with their body in the same way. We can truly understand though because we are stuck in that world of not really knowing. You can ONLY fully understand that if you've been there. It's just with those who are bi, that is only answered if and when we find someone we are meant to be with. If not, we constantly wonder. Some would wonder why we don't just choose already but we are who we are. It's not the same pain but it's pain all the same. We can't choose because we are who we are. If I were to be honest, I envy those who can choose. It's hard to explain, I'm proud to be me but I envy those who can truly live as well. Anyway, beautifully written Miranda.
