Tonight, my online friend Hailey from Australia posted pictures from her second ever outing in public as herself. She wrote "It is very nice to feel just ... Myself" and i couldn't be happier for her! This is why i stick around the trans community 30 years after my own transition - so i get to see people experiencing these moments of joy in their transitions, these inflection points in life where things turn towards a better future. Seeing a young woman blossom into her true self is a privilege and a joy i will never grow tired of.
