#authentic lives

the good fight

🦶 Cajun

Sunny disposition brings on brutally cold weather on the prairie

Frigid winds circulate substantial northern icy air, unexpectedly

Sunny warmth and icy chill upon the flatlands battle, oxymoronic

Mother Nature’s symbolism for days to come ushering in a new era of anxiety where nothing seems right

YET love will remain firm as a veil of protest and protection

Seeking redemption as one who has always fought the good fight of the oppressed who live honest in their authentic selves

Lose all that fear and your world will open up like a lily to the heat.

The Irish minister for Health, Leo Varadkar, came out on national radio this morning. I'm really proud of him and I think it's great to see high profile public figures being able to be their authentic selves.

My friend disagrees with the idea of someone being agender unless they have social dysphoria and want to get surgery to remove their genitals. They say that it's just stupid and that by labeling one's self as agender you validate gender roles and it's ridiculous to call someone something other than him or her. I don't know how to convince her that agender people literally identify as neither a woman nor a man. What is your opinion?

I think you need better friends.

How dare they invalidate someone else’s life because it doesn’t make sense to them. This is NOT about you friend. This is about people living their lives as their authentic selves.
