I didn’t need to be called out this early in the morning lol

Realizing I am a trans woman has led to so much self-reflection and put a lens on things that happened to me growing up that make so much sense now. I went to Catholic school from 2nd to 12th grade. I never had the words available to me to understand who I was or explain what I was feeling.

Now I finally do, and I’m actually able to start living authentically as myself, and not the caricature of myself that I assembled to meet the expectations that people had of me. It’s not easy, but it’s worth it
