Thankful- 
Every day I'm thankful. For a beating working heart, working lungs, two functions legs and arms. Every time I see the stars in the sky or my loved ones smile i am thankful for my eyes. I don't even need glasses. I am so glad I don't have the skin condition where your whole body is covered in blisters, or your constantly shaking. I don't even have acne. I am so lucky my face is not deformed and I'm lucky I'm tall. For a trans guy height is something I have right now which a lot of them don't. I am so, so lucky I don't often get misgendered like some other trans guys. And I don't get bullied for my sexuality or race or beliefs or gender. Lucky right.
I have working fingers which can create the worlds spinning inside my head into art. 
I am not colour blind so I can really be free with my art work. I don't have learning disabilities and I'm not mute or deaf or sick. I don't have a terminal illness and I have the white privilege. I can speak english! 
There are no volcano's or hurricanes or anything where I live and it's unlikely we're under threat of a terrorist attack where i am. I think. 
I have people that care about me and love me. I am thankful I don't get abused, and I'm middle class and have a roof over my head and access to food, water, and the internet!! I am thankful I am part of such an awesome fan base on the internet. I am thankful I'm accepted as a member of a group. Like officially.
I am thankful that I haven't been raped or assaulted. 
I am very thankful I'm in a time top surgery and even bottom surgery is possible. 
I am thankful for the trans community on YouTube
I am thankful I can listen to music
And that online, I can speak my mind quite clearly. 
I am proud I'm lgbt. I love how I'm not straight! It's awesome! 
And I am also thankful I have a phone! Because it helps awkward situations!!
I should say thanks more often.
