An Aging Trans Woman

“Life is difficult. This is a great truth, one of the greatest truths. It is a great truth because once we truly see this truth, we transcend it. Once we truly know that life is difficult – once we truly understand and accept it – then life is no longer difficult. Because once it is accepted, the fact that life is difficult no longer matters.”

An expose of the Bush administration’s actions after 9/11 and in Iraq, the movie is the first documentary ever to win the grand prize in the world-famous Cannes Film Festival. The New York Times said, “Whatever you think of Moore… [these are] pictures that have been largely shielded from our view.”

“Make the time each day to offer an expression of appreciation to just one of your fellow human beings. It is the accumulation of such “small” kindnesses and acts of recognition and awareness and respect that add up to a life worth having been lived. In short … you must care. You must wear your passion and compassion and engagement on your sleeve, and attend intensively to the moment. It will not come ’round again!”
