"Accepting the Dream"

  what reneereyes.com is all about... 

Why would a busy gal like Renee: a one-handed typist that values free time like gold develop this web site?

Simple. I have a dream...

i dream of sisterhood

I dream of a time when all people with any form of gender-identity disorder: from first-time cross dressers to post-operative transsexuals come to embrace the common ground they share versus harping over differences. 

I liken our kinship to the sprawling pin oak tree situated on my front lawn. It's myriad of branches reach out in all directions Each limb comes in a variety of shapes: some are long, others short, a few are even broken.  

One attribute about my oak remains true: when you reach the very end of each branch? The shape of every leaf is the same. This remains true of every pin oak in the world: from Atlanta, GA to Munich, Germany. Why do these trees always end up looking identical at-the-end? It's because regardless of which branch you follow: they're fundamentally the same.  

Transgenderism is quite similar to these oak trees: all different yet fundamentally the same. 

I dream that one day we'll focus our energy on embracing this common ground.

i dream of america

It may sound silly to some, but I truly love the United States of America. I have faith in the ideals penned on July 4, 1776. Those oppressed gentlemen understood the importance of individual freedoms.  Besides, how could I not go along with a bunch of guys wearing wigs?. They looked a lot like I do. *Grin*

We live in a country where each person's afforded the right to pursue their own happiness. I relish this opportunity. Why? Because I'm different. Our forefathers were also uncommon and likewise persecuted by the religious majority.

I dream of an America where no person feels threatened or ashamed of being themselves. Our forefathers understood this principle and made it the law of our great land. I think I'm in pretty good company on this issue.

i dream of you

I dream of you and that you'll achieve all your inner hopes and dreams. I believe you'll find all the love life has to offer if you simply look inside yourself. 

As human beings, we inherently search for a purpose to life & living. This elusive secret remains a focal point of countless books & research. I believe we already have the answer. It's the recognition that there's really no secret...only the gift of life. Thus, the secret to life, love and happiness...is living.

I dream you'll live your life as your heart sees fit and not conform your soul to the beat of another's drummer.

accepting the dream

"Transgenderism" - is a pretty big word. It's described in a variety of psychological and medical journals chocked full of extra-long adjectives & weighted down by loads of Latin prefixes and suffixes. We'll learn a great deal more about it in the decades ahead. However, we already have a cure for all it's symptoms - acceptance. 

Our country was founded upon the idea each person has a right to be-themselves and pursue happiness as they see fit. Each of us empowered with gender dysphasia can make a choice to love and embrace ourselves...just the way we are. And as a collective group we must choose to accept one another and appreciate the common ground we share.

I dedicate this web site - and my life...to the acceptance of the dream.
