Timidness is a book that is about loving your authentic self. To be able to love your authentic self you must know your authentic self.
As a matter of fact. If you allow people, friends, families or enemies toil with your self-esteem, you are not ready for anything great yet!
Today, I am sharing the story of I and a friend Lisa (not her real name), and yes with her full consent and permission. With hopes that someone will learn from it.

Heavy Heart
After my overtime was done I clocked out and went to my locker. I changed out of my work coat and disposed of my hair net. As I left the ladies locker room there was a group of men outside in the lobby of the employee entrance. At the centre of it were my two least favorite co-workers; Brock Hansen and Zack Trulley. They had been in school with me from elementary all the way through grade twelve. We had been in the same class. My entire life, they had made fun of me because I was a bigger girl. Since we were all adults, you would think that childish behavior would be behind us; it wasn't. Brock and Zack both continued to call me the various pet names they had for me like 'the walrus' or 'the blob'. When I was a teenager it used to send me to the bathroom in tears, it would send me over the edge and cause me to want to hurt myself. Since I was older, I didn't let it get to me as much as I used to. I decided I wasn't going to let it tear me down, I was better then they were. I wasn't going to allow bullies to hurt me. As I passed by the group of men, Brock shouted at me, "Hey Walrus, where are you going? Back to the sea?" I rolled my eyes and ignored him. I found that not responding was the best way to deal with them. If I acknowledged their behaviour it only encouraged it. I just kept walking with my head held up high. I didn't care what they thought of me. I was a bigger girl and I wasn't going to allow their words to tear me down.Complete

Awakenings: The Greek, The Russian and Me
The first year of college is a learning experience in and out of the classroom, as Fran is quickly finding. Her relationship with sultry Greek Conn has been an eye-opener, awakening Fran's passionate sexual desire and need for intimacy. But dating Conn has its drawbacks. The two lovers come from very different cultures, and their expectations of each other are often at odds. Still, the sex is amazing. As Fran struggles to navigate the inevitable obstacles of a multiethnic relationship, she meets Erik. As seductive as Conn, Erik also comes from a different culture-he's Russian. Two men, one woman. It's a tantalizing plot for late-night drama, but Fran quickly finds living that story line to be exhausting-emotionally and physically. She knows she can't have both, but whom does she choose-the Greek or the Russian? It would be a lot easier for her to decide if she didn't have to break someone's heart in the process.Complete
