Music With A Meaning

You're screaming, Cover up with a smile I've learned to fear"

"Set Me Free" by Chasing Eidolon


"Like a Dream in the night, Who can say where we're going?"
Brian Ferry: "More Than This"

It's just the kind of day to leave myself behind"
Moody Blues: "Tuesday Afternoon"

"Why do we never get an answer when we're knocking at the door?"

the pressure of my ever worrying mind"

"In silence she reaches out...."
Amethystium: "Treasure" 

 Something at a very subliminal level from years past prior to starting to accept and transition...

    I am a bit older than you and I came to love the songs and lyrics of
    the Moody Blues when i was 15(?) in 1968. I grew up to be an oldies radio DJ and music lover, artist, and vinyl record collector. The old songs gave me so much direction between "Days of Future Passed" until "the Seventh sojourn" Thanks.

    Thank you for sharing your journey and awesome videos. The spiritual music which accompanies your blog adds to that lifelong discovery of your inner self and sometimes almost brings me to tears. I agree with previous comments about the Moody Blues, my favorite group and how their songs reflected the inner self

    I'm a big fan of A-HA since I grew up in the eighties. I pretty much like all synthpop from that time. My fave song from A-HA was of course "Living A Boy's Adventure Tale". E.Z.

The Penultimate Post

It has been a while since I have blogged on here.... a long while.  The gaps between my blog posts have slowly widened as I have begun to find myself, more and more, just simply living my life as a woman.  The dysphoria is all but gone.  This blog was a tool, as much for those who have read it, as it was for myself.  I was able to make sense of my life and this journey, as much as anyone might hope, through the self reflection engendered in the process of writing out my thoughts.  Often, I would re-read my own posts from months or years prior and see how different my perspectives have become and my thoughts have changed as I grew slowly into the person I have always been. I call this the penultimate post because it is the next to the last post I will write for this blog.  This blog is not going away, nor am I.  My transition is not ending, just as each and every one of us never end our own life's transitions, whether you be transgender or not.  What is going away is the need for

Connecting The Dots

Again, it has been a while since I have posted on here.  A lot has been happening around and within me.  Living now full time as a woman publicly has brought a sense of peace and contentment to me internally in ways I have never felt before internally. No matter what hardships I may incur as a result of this life change, it is a decision I could never regret.  To have such a personal sense of peace like no other is at once reaffirming and calming.  There is no way that anyone who is not transgender could understand the feeling of dysphoria in not being able to live authentically to their own sense of self.  Likewise, there was no way I could have known how comfortable it was for those born into a gender that fits from birth.....until now.  Now I understand what I was feeling before; the anxiety, the withdrawal from society, the angst and pensiveness.  The lack of comfortability in others who felt ill at ease with me as a person playing the male role has been replaced with the world r

Dream Myself Awake

I don't usually wake up startled in the middle of the night, sit up in my bed in the stillness of a dark room and wonder why my heart is racing and my skin has broken out in a sweat.  I can't say that I could recall exactly it was that I had been dreaming of either.  I can say that it wasn't anything positive or uplifting.  Far from it.  This doesn't usually happen to me so what exactly happened? Yesterday started out like any other day in recent times.  I woke up, logged in to work and set out about my day.  At some point, I found myself with some free time and so began to pick up where I left off with items associated with my name and gender marker change.....  Another credit card company to call, another financial institution to correct some error on the new and present name I am proud owner of, another lawyer to contact about legalities that need to be synced up. Usual stuff.  Well, it seemed usual.  In all truthfulness, everything has been wearing on me, and w
