The Woman Within

With so many things going on in my life both personal and familial, it has been a trying time for quite a long period of late.  Redefining the very existence of one's relationship with one's spouse because of being transgender has proven to be more emotionally difficult for us both.  It's funny, because in some ways our relationship is stronger than it ever was but in others, it is as if whole segments are now gone.  While there is mourning at the virtual death of the husband that was, there is a new relationship as sisters and friends.  It is a conflagration of conflicting emotions which we both harbor within our hearts and it is proving to be a difficult realm for us both. Familial ties and stresses for us both in our respective families has begun to test our mettle and endurance to be there for others while we both find ourselves silently struggling within with our own issues.  It is for this reason, that the first part of the title of this blog entry exist...

In my spare time, I've been teaching myself how to play the Piano.  Having no formal lessons except for my patience and my purchase of this beautiful keyboard from Goodwill for six dollars, I've been able to accomplish something that brings me great pleasure when the house is empty, the mind is addled and the evening's are late....sometimes very late. You likely know all of these tunes.... although you may not recognize the names.... Hit the "pause" button in the "Melodic Musings" box on the right to halt any background music which may autostart.
