words

I’ve never been known for my confidence.

I mean…I know I’m a cool person and all, but…I’m pretty happy to sit back and let others have the spotlight.

Which makes stepping out of my comfort zone and writing a personal essay and having any sort of confidence about this, well…it’s hard.

The funny thing about writing is that sometimes it takes on a life of its own. Sometimes you set out expecting to tell one story and then all of a sudden you’re writing down a completely different story. One that you didn’t even know you needed to tell.

I’ll be submitting this story. Me. To something else besides my own personal blog.

And it scares the shit out of me.

I’ve never really put myself out there. Not like this. Not with something quite so personal.

I have no idea what will happen with this. And that’s okay.

I think I'm just so glad I told the story.
