About this series
“Before time there was a gathering in heaven and the voice of the Lord went out 'Who shall I send?' A little girl step forward and in a meek little voice answered, 'Here am I Lord send me.' And again the Lord asked, “Who shall I send?' and a woman stepped forward, ' Lord send me that I might prepare the way for this child you have chosen.”
“The woman was chosen also, but was given charge that she would be the first of those who would be called Life, while the child would be Life in its fullness to the children of men.”
“Again the Lord called out, 'Who shall I send?' And another small girl stepped forward. 'Here am I Lord send me.' And another woman stepped forward 'Lord this is but a child, choose another for the task you ask is hard,' she stepped back with the others afraid the Lord might choose her instead, while the girl stayed forward standing alone wishing someone older would step forward. The girl was chosen to love her sister and help her be strong when she was weak,” I said.
“My sister told me this story long ago, even before you were born Marie. She told me again the last time I saw her in this life. Even now I do not understand fully what the sisters were chosen for, only that they stood before the Lord trusting whatever he asked he would prepare the way before them.”

To be able to see the world in a manner that is void of prejudice and bigotry. Able to accept someone not because they fit our standard of normal, but instead, just because they are. To be able to look at someone and let them define who they are rather than making a judgment based on preconceived notions and stereotypes of what society says they should be. Connie set just such a standard, then challenged those around her to see things otherwise. She accepted a woman as someone who said they were a woman, the same for men. She surrounded herself with those she knew she could trust, those who had proven her trust wasn't misplaced. She in turn gained their trust by not judging on standards set by society. Welcome to a world were things aren't always as they appear. Where acceptance is the rule rather then the exception. A place where people come first, and their differences don't matter. A place where a person is judged on their abilities, not their looks. Where skin color has no meaning. Religion is a personal choice, and shared only with those interested. A place where personal beliefs are never used to restrict someone, nor deprive them of their rights to express themselves in a manner comfortable to that person. Prejudice has no place in this world and is never tolerated. Tolerance is the law everyone is expected to live by. Freedom of expression reigns supreme. Welcome to the world of Connie Carlson, friend to the friendless, champion of the defenseless, icon of independence. Welcome to the world of freedom for all, where every person has the right to live their life in a way they feel is right for how they define themselves. A world where everyone has the same rights until they deny someone else of their rights.

I was born in April 1955 as the heir to my father. My older brother should have been, he had the same initials as dad, but he was mentally retarded and had a heart condition from birth. According to my mother she knew from the time I was growing inside her that I would be a boy and the heir they had hope my brother could have been.I have known for as long as I can remember that I was different that there was something not right about me. I am a M2F (male to female) transsexual. I am currently on HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy); I started on HRT October 1, 2007. I have been in therapy for GID (Gender Identity Disorder) since February 2007. I have not set a time yet for completing my transition to becoming the woman I know I am inside. There are so many things involved in transitioning that most people have no clue about. The differences between the sexes are so vast and all of my life I have led a life that just never fit who I am inside. I have learned so much and yet there is still so much that I still don’t know about being the woman I always knew I was.
