Today is the anniversary of one of the most intense days of my life. On 11/18/17 I started my day by running the Philadelphia half marathon, then I cooked for and hosted a friendsgiving dinner, where I then came out to my oldest and closest friends at this same dinner. As I reflect on how much my life has changed this past year, I cannot help but feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude.
I was actually crying on my drive home from my laser appointment yesterday and initially I couldn’t figure out why. I wasn’t sad at all really, despite the pain I love going to laser. Eventually was able to put my finger on it, I felt intensely and overwhelmingly grateful.
It was beyond comprehension. I kid you not, I was crying for 10 – 15 minutes in the car because I felt so grateful to be able to do what I am doing in my life right now. I can’t believe I have been able to transition and to have done it so successfully, and now I am able to share my experience with you. To help others find their own strength and inspiration is the passion I never knew I had.
