"The pages of this book detail a journey, a pilgrimage, an evolution. This journey is without a final destination, but certainly not without a clear purpose. It began with the yearning to become whole, and not with any intention to live as a woman.
My pursuit of wholeness is without end, a dynamic process that became a consuming passion, and will last until my final breath. Although initially not focused on a change in gender, this path did lead to the acceptance that I am female and always have been female. This acceptance brought inner peace, physical health, an outer radiance, and a permanent joy that were not imaginable beforehand, but created shock waves that challenged every aspect of my external world.
