Taylor said that she never really much like himself or even a real person. Previously, everything was 'gray' - living a life that didn't feel an inch like she was actually living. She imagined he was just 'acting' her part as a human being among many. But 'everything felt pretend'.
But since she started on estrogens, she began to feel so different and it felt like 'an alarm had been ringing' for his entire life but he was too numb to realize it. Now, everything felt colorful, everything felt alive, she was enjoying the small things - beautiful trees, flowers, rocks, she felt excited living her day.
