Saw this on Instagram recently and, while I wouldn’t say NEVER, I can easily say HARDLY EVER. And just so y’all know… no, it’s not easy and, yes, I am always afraid. But I just keep doing. Because that’s all I know, to keep on doing. So maybe the next time you feel threatened by your imagined concept of me, and before you project your insecure shit onto me and decide I am somehow “too this or too that”… remember that I am actually terrified. All the time. EVERY WAKING MOMENT. And yet I keep getting up in the morning, and I keep on doing stuff in spite of all that. Then ask yourself how well you would do under the same circumstances. And think about it.
I don’t know what this other person’s idea of you is, but I have to say that to me you always seem to be immensely brave. Starting a new life in a new country AND in a new language? Wow. Asking for help when you needed it, that takes strength. The way you’ve carved out a new career for yourself & absolutely smashed it. I wish i had a tenth of your courage.

It’s not just one other person, unfortunately. But luckily it’s not everyone! Thanks Deb.
