Entschuldigt gleich vorweg den englischen Text aber...es wäre ein kleines bisschen viel das alles zu übersetzen.

"Never give up! Find your inner strength, your courage. Don't be afraid to look at yourself. Don't fear that you made mistakes. Maybe your inner courage just wants to share a nice cup of tea and have a chat with you...."

There was a time in my life when I just wanted to give up being myself. I wanted to change and turn myself into something that would fit into society and the image others had of me. I tried....several years.....

Of course, I was totally unhappy but I thought "as long as the others are happy and accept me now..."
In the end, they didn't. I got no acceptance and I was totally sad about my current situation. I even hid under the term "lesbian" so I would not have to explain why I like girls and still don't enjoy any lesbian stuff. I let them talk.

At least I did until one day.....

I met a bunch of nice people back then and I just openly admitted that I'm trans. All they did is shrug and smile. It was normal for them. No problem at all. This moment was my first step on my journey to find my inner courage. I worked hard to find my true self again. Four years ago I finally found the most important part on my journey to be myself. Somebody that loves me just the way I am. From this day forth, my whole life changed.


What I want to say is, some people are always afraid to show courage no matter if it's about something political or even about their self. They are not able to ask them self why they can't just be their self etc. The sad fact is, they think they don't have any courage in them and that they are not able to find something like that in themselves. That's not true. Inner courage comes with many other factors. You'll need some self confidence too. Some are also afraid to look for it because they think they'll realize how stupid and guilty they are for not defending what they believe in.

Living in a society that is mostly against LGBT people is not easy, I know. But courage is something deep in all of us. We just have to find it.......or have a nice cup of tea with it....


Artist Note:
This picture was planned for the "Spirit Day" (that's why I changed Will's mane purple (he's pure black normally). The colors you see here would actually be the ones of his son, Lex.)

I chose Will as representation of my inner courage because his first appearance was approx. at the same time when I started being honest about myself. He's something like a spiritual/astral guide to me. Not really a role-model but a nice uncle that keeps a watchful eye on me.

Why the top-hat, the glasses and the tee?
Well he's a very very very British lion I guess.....
