Like one forgets the name of someone you know or a specific word to describe something, for several seconds, maybe as long as a minute, I completely forgot what gender I am, there was a total blank. Fortunately I"m far enough along on this adventure that it intrigued me instead of scaring me.

During the course of my life I've deeply examined my sexual and gender identities, and eventually identified with ones not acceptable by much of my society (with big consequences of both loss and gain). I see in hindsight that pulled a lot of my ego apart … and it also built a new, albeit bigger, ego jail-cell.

As I let go into this moment more and more, my relationship to these identities (and all identities) is shifting and dissolving. Sometimes recently I feel confused about 'what to do' about it and there's a story that I 'need to be true to who I am, even on a surface level, and 'do my part to help' society embrace non-heteronormative identities'. Then (with relief) I remember there's nothing to do, and as I 'be', next steps will be revealed in next moments.

I remember the important thing is my identity beyond identities, as the oneness we all ultimately are. And I rest in that, so gratefully.
