The Wisdom of Emotion

Why I Transitioned From Man To Woman

Bear with me, I'm doing my best...

You wouldn't be gaming nature...?

That life force that knows best how

its creatures will develop, we assume.

You suffer because humankind is

gregarious and acceptance is vital to

the satisfaction of life with companions

and to be shunned and mocked runs

counter to the kind of emotional needs

we all wish fulfilled. Please understand

I am happy for you that dark thoughts

of self-harm no longer cloud your

future. Public health dollars so much

in demand to stem the tide of so

many human ills are no doubt well

spent in expanding care and comfort

with your dilemma allowing you to

become 'yourself', no longer male, a

condition of your birth that had never

you say, suited the inner you. Having

always considered yourself female

however, I am struggling with the 

fact that you fathered two children

and now that you have transitioned

those children have a 'mamma' and a

'mother'. Is this all perfectly rational?

 Ah, but then, who ever claimed we 

humans treasure rationality over the   

 allure of emotional fulfillment?
