Twelve Days to Christmas - Day 2
Have ourselves a merry little Christmas?
Do the best we can…
Maybe this is the year
we come out to our family as trans?
Have ourselves a merry little Christmas?
What’s the worst to fear…
That we put it off
to some indefinite far-off year?
Here we are as in olden days
un-emboldened days of yore
with some friends who might fear for us
as we retreat to the closet once more
Through the years I hope we’re not together
If I don’t come out
No reason we should both be filled with fear and doubt…
At least YOU should have yourself a merry little Christmas now

Awwwww
I think that's about the saddest Christmas song I ever heard.
~huggles and commiserations, your friend Veronica
What borders on pure insanity?
Canada and Mexico.

As much as this is part of the repertoire
... of Christmas carols, in the context of the movie, Meet Me In St. Louis, it is a very sad song. I don't believe most people who listen to it understand what it's about.

Watching Judy Garland
you can see the sadness in her eyes
Love, Andrea Lena
count me among those who fear for you
biggest huggles, Tante Drea
No Reason We Should Both Be Filled With Fear And Doubt
Dearest Andrea, it's a part of our condition. Most of us are in the same boat and I'll share it with you this Christmas and probably for a long time to come. You are not alone love.
Crying...
Crying very quietly right now, so no one else will notice.
Because this may just be the last Christmas I have with my wife, my life companion for over 25 years.
I came out, and she won't handle it.
