Description from maker

How do you spell Enby? (self given title)

I like the sums of parts making up a whole. It felt mixed up and confused but in an ordered way; I thought a lot about color, I feel like I can't claim trans as a group because I am not actively tranisitioning even though I would like to. I wanted something that felt good to me. Ochre is one of my favorite colors. And I pick up small rocks on walks and keep them in my pockets. Nonbinary seems like a demiliterized zone of sorts where you cobble together pieces to make a whole.; I want people to know you can figure things out as you go and that your journey doesn't stop at a certain age or even when you come out. It's a constant evolution of living in your body and it's going to change so many times.
