I'm terrified of being seen, known, and worst of all, vulnerable. It takes courage to be all of that; I'm wired to withdraw, to divert. 
I'm the worst deliberate actress and the best unintentional actress I know, and that's an outrageous paradox if I've ever heard one. 

I don't know how I'll change or how my life will change as I continue to live it, but I know that I owe it to myself-and to the people who think they should have their life together but don't-to attempt honesty. We're all in this together.

Sharing myself, through words and within the  safe cocoon of anonymity, is the only way I know how. For now, I hope it's enough.
