The End

I've been toying for awhile about wrapping this blog up. Every time I thought I would I thought of something else and then blogged another episode.

This however will be the last one. 

It's served it's purpose which was to track my journey. Journeys have an end. 

Since my last blog, my father fell ill and unfortunately passed away. 

It's had a devastating effect on me. I'm in pain I didn't think imaginable. I feel entirely lost.

Grief very much causes introspection and evaluation.

My journey is complete now as a key part of that journey, my greatest ally isn't here anymore. I'd have probably not started this without him or it at least would have taken a lot longer just to start. 

When I set out on this journey, I really had no expectations of how long it would take, where it would take me and what the journey would entail. 

I'd have never guessed that it would take me where it has. There have been great things, amazing things and some pretty low points as well.

Do I regret things....oh yes....quite a bit actually. Given half a chance I'd have done things differently, listened more to myself than others in some cases and vice versa. 

My journey continues but for now it continues privately whilst I process my loss.

Thanks are numerous. The support I've had has been amazing and I've met some great people on this journey.

If you are reading this and have questioned your gender identity, I hope this helped to show you where things are great and where the pitfalls are. 

The one thing I would leave you with is this....

Whoever you are, whatever you are, be true to yourself.

Take care, be you and enjoy.

Love
