Musings of a grown child.
Just Be by Barbara Lynn Terry I am fifty seven but think like fourteen, I am the little girl who is never seen, I am she who has always been, My wits about me so keen. When I was young I did play, But then was told I couldn't stay, Because they all called me a girl, In the small town where mother couldn't see, How I would hop, skip, jump and twirl. If only mother knew from all of them, That to be a girl I could have been, So happy, carefree, and then My life would be full and complete, So I could live and just be.

I think that one of the cruelest punishments that one human being can inflict on another is intolerance, as well as projecting their ignorance on someone who only wants to be loved for who they are. You've expressed this so well Barbie. Sage gave you some great advice. I echo those sentiments as well. Be proud of who God made you to be...His precious child. Blessings, Michelle

Just be you, Barbie....you are a kind soul who can hop, skip, jump, and twirl on AD!!! I respect your need to be a girl and all that a girl packs in her purse with life's trinkets. Walk proudly, Barbie!

You have had to carry a heavy burden due to the ignorance of people on how this affects a person. May God lighten your anxiety and give you peace of mind from here on in.
