Life has never been easy, and I would not have any other way. I grew up in a extremely conservative household. Sexuality was not a common topic. And talking about sex or kink was a no go. So from the time I was about 13 when I realized that I was a sapio sexual with many kinks like the occasional cross dressing. So that manifested in the form of me having to hide it. Well when I finally got found I got sent to a sex therapist because My dad couldn't accept me.
Later in life I finally found a wife which I was a diehard Christian or so I had thought. If you read my blog you would know that said ex-wife had cheated on me with my father which is its own long story. Now when that relationship ship ended I went soul search and redefined who I am. I was 24 when I finally accepted who I was. And I proudly live it now. My dad on the other hand hates it, and I could care less.
Never the less, life has never been easy for me. The saying "The struggle is real" is very appropriate for me. But it isn't like I am not trying. Because you must try, try again till you succeed. You must learn from your failures. 'fail fast, fail forward" just because you fail does not make you a failure. Thomas Edison failed 1000 times before he succeeded. He stated "I did not fail 1000 times, I learned 1000 ways not to make a light bulb". With out struggle there is no progression. And with our progression there is no advancement.
Time is the only constant it is ever marching and unyielding. So remember all you have is the now, so do what you desire and be happy. Fighting to succeed at your goals.
