[NTLK] A personal note

[Forrest Buffenmyer]

Roos:

I admire your bravery and your understanding and acceptance of who you really are.

Many many persons in the world have little to no idea of self-awareness, and quite a few of those that do are unable or unwilling to fully grasp what it would require to achieve that self-awareness.

I believe that souls do not have a gender—that is limited to our physical beings. When we learn to see with our hearts and minds, appearances do not matter.

The best of luck and blessings for all that is ahead for you.

Mahalo,
Forrest
