A Look Back at I Am Me
I wrote I Am Me in 2022, right around a year before I came out as trans. Reading it now, it resonates so much with everything happening.
The original inspiration was the idea that people tried cramming me into a box labeled “Man” and I hated it. That wasn't me. I didn't want to be treated that way. Now that I'm out as trans, living life as a woman, I'm so much happier. I'm happy to be crammed into a box labeled “Woman,” even though that's still a close-minded way of thinking.
I'm gonna keep flying free, no matter what. Because I am me.
Thank you for reading. Remember, we are stronger together. And we'll get through this. Together.
