Has what you value changed as your "Tness" develops?

Since starting transition, I've realized that I care very deeply about helping others, and I spend a lot of time doing so, at least I hope I'm helpful. There is so much that needs to be done though, it's beyond any one person. I've realized that what happens to me, in my life, is largely irrelevant. It's not about me. It's about others. My life only makes sense in those terms.

I find as the pink tsunami has continued, I am a lot calmer person. May this will be the norm now.
One can hope. I am also a lot more tolerant of others.

The more that I am allowed to be myself..the happier I am.
This is not tied in any way to what I purchase. (Light bulb going on)

I think my values are improving as I age, and find that satisfaction is way more important than materialism for sure!

we are what we are and lifes purpose (imhop)is to become all we are and that includes things we might not like at first or are against common practices in society.we can fight it and live a life of conflict or find acceptance and a suitable accommodation for our little peccadillos.doing the latter will add a tremendous amount of maturity in our development and will lead to contentment and harmony in our lives.it has in mine!

I think age has changed more of me than t-ness. But I do seem to be a lil more caring and a lil less sharped tongued!

I agree with Beverley. Since I have retired, my focus is more on feminine things and how women are treated in society.

Yes it has. I think with age, you tend to start being able to separate commercialism from what's really important too, but factoring in "Tness", what I value most over material acquisitions is the periods of time where I have the freedom to dress and go out and about; I'm happy with repairing the not-so-new vehicles or fixing things instead of rushing to buy the latest and greatest as I've lost any interest I may have had with "keeping up with the Joneses". Being happy and self-respect are what I value now.
