embrace change. you are an evolving being, walking through many stages of life, in different ways, in different times, in different places. you are a work of art in motion, your chapters are written by the day- you never been quite the same as who you were yesterday, on the last page, in the last chapter. this is a good thing. you are not the same person you were when you were a toddler, you will not be the same person when you are an elder. changing your name, changing your identity, changing your pronouns, changing the way you dress, changing by the second or the day is okay, when you realize that change is all we do.
Part of taking care of your body is not having shame about it. If you're spending all your energy being guilty then you're not giving your body the rest that it needs to recover
