Charmed life

[jessica_m1978]

I manage to survive, perhaps even thrive, despite spending the first 20+ years of my life waiting, maybe even hoping, to collapse and crash and burn.  Even then, I had moments of happiness.  And now that I'm not spending my life waiting to die, I'm starting realize what a charmed life I lead

I haven't had the rough stage of coming out yet... everybody has been very accepting so far.... but I definitely get the "living" vs. "existing." I feel like I spent most of my life trying to be what other people told me to be, now I'm just going down my own road while giving the dictators the bird.... :)

Being alive and happy is pretty remarkable when you give yourself a chance to feel it.
