To get lost in my own words as the feelings I’ve bottled up in me erupt from me like a volcano.
I want but need to promulgate my work
But the shyness in me keeps pushing back as if my dreams and desires should just be kept hidden.
And the battle to come out and show up is endless, as the struggle to be known and seen is a fight for a front-row seat.
Or even better, to be on stage and be the one everyone’s eyes are on.
I want to say one day, but I know one day will end up not showing up because it’s a way I sabotage the things I deserve the most!

In therapy, my therapist introduced a thought of, what if everything works out? It is hard to change the habit, but I am working on it.
Um, that is something I need to use too, but like you said, habits are sometimes hard to change. Hopefully, the changes that improve life will stick for you and me! 🙂
