Eventually like many others there comes a point where you learn to accept yourself. That happened about seven years ago. My thoughts now are that I was given one life and why should I lead the life others want me to lead. Life is short and I don't want to look back when I'm old and say I wish I had done this and done that. At least I know that I am true to myself and I can accept myself because I believe that this is the life I was intended to have.
