“Changing identity plays a massive part in any transition, and grappling with it is one of the most important things you will ever do to help you move forward.”

“Maybe “where is home�� is itself an inadequate or altogether wrong question to ask in the first place. Home means something more than a where. It’s not a structure, not an address, not a city, not even a country. I’m beginning to wonder if home is even a place at all. Home, perhaps, is a disposition of the soul, an acknowledgment that I share with another soul a certain intimate narrative.”

“Having lived abroad and come home again has increased my awareness that there is always another way to do practically anything. This awareness means that, although I can’t always control what happens, I am responsible for my life. I must take ownership of the choices I make. Even, or maybe especially, when I have mixed feelings about those choices.”
