I’ve always been the type of individual to never hold back on anything I want to pursue because of it. Do I find myself blocking on the same breakfast order, or talking over the phone, or crying because it just gets too tough? Yes, all of this and so much more. Yet, I’ve learned that it has given me more courage, empathy, and will to chase down my dreams than if I didn’t. I truly believe it. God, family and friends will be there when you just don’t think you’re good enough, fluent enough, or worth the time to others. Its each of our own cross to bear. Hope and positivity will come out of our sometimes ‘speechless’ moments if you allow it. Stay strong everyone.
