My Transgender Suicide Story, Please Watch

This newest video details my personal struggle with suicide. And the realization that in this life there are really only two choices you can lean towards in every moment: the choice of love or the choice of fear. Far too often the choice society makes for transgender people is only sharing with them the narrative of self loathing, coincidentally separating them from the source of love within them, and forcing them into a hopeless narrative of fear. In my own journey I have had moments of letting fear over take me, leading me down the road that says, "It is better to end my life than to continue". Every single time a voice of love has spoken louder and has kept me here. Every time I learn more truly that if I deliberately lean towards love in every moment the voice of fear slowly but surely gets quieter. It is an every day practice of leaning toward love against a society that tells me to hate my body and hate myself. I make a choice to get quiet enough to hear Love and Love says, "Your only job is to be happy. Your only job is to be free". I mention God in this video only because it is the word my grandmother uses to describe the ever present source of love within me. If you don't believe in a traditional conception of God, that's cool. It's just a word. Believe in love. Believe in yourself. Believe in your own human spirit. Believe in your purpose. Believe that your birth right is happiness. Instagram:   / ashtonjamescolby   Tumblr:   / ashtonjamescolby   Twitter:   / ashtonjcolby   Facebook:   / ashjcolby   Email: [email protected]
