René Magritte, The Art of Conversation, 1963
(via last-picture-show)
Sometimes it feels like to be trans is to live a life of waiting; growing in ways that few understand and then waiting to understand yourself in the process, waiting for others to understand you, waiting for doctor’s notes, waiting for surgery dates, waiting to wait….
My being present is one of patience, always.

I have noticed that, as I’ve progressed on this pathway, I’ve picked up a lot of rules and regulations. And in picking up the rules and regulations of should and shouldn’t, that who’s taken the brunt of that in myself is this thing called the personality. And this personality, for me, has become like a whipping post, my inner tyrant. And so what I wanted to ask you was, how can this personality, being that this is an aspect of self, be a vehicle for beauty, something to be endeared and worked with, rather than the experience of constant obstacle? ~Ram Dass
