Hi, I am  a 64 yr  TS.  went threw my life changes back in the 90's and completed my SRS in 2001.  I look at life differently than most people...have a different perspective on life.  
I don't believe in follow the rules and regulation that society lay out for transgender people.      
Believe in thinking and living out side the box .
I really  enjoy reading the stories of young ladies navigating life threw their changes and find love.  Because it reminds me of  the good and bad  of going threw life's  journey, the adventures and problems along the way to becoming the woman that you are.  My childhood, marriage,  hormones, divorce, family, friends, dating,the Bible, surrendering my life to the Lord, living my life as the lady that I am.   
My journey started out when I was 8 years old with 3 older sisters.  Later on in life I learn that my sisters were dressing me as a girl from day one when mom brought me home from the hospital.....it is a crazy life that we live.
My advice to transgender people..... to finding happiness.
You are who you are......be true to yourself....do not let  anyone   or  anything...   control you  or  define you.....accept  and live life for who you are.
Do not hide or bury who you are.....no matter how hard you try...it will resurface....it will eat you up like a cancer from the inside out.
