Before last summer, I was afraid all of the time. seriously-- I was afraid to be myself because I was afraid of losing the people I loved. now really, if they really were my friends I could be myself and keep them, but that didn't seem to sink in. when I got to fair, though, I had a chance to start as myself for 200 people with no expectations. I was able to be comfortable for the first time in a long time in my own skin. and, amazingly enough, I fit in. I made friends, some of whom I hope never to lose. I cherish my experience at fair because I learned how to be myself and I can 100% honestly say that I am much happier because of it. I've only been there one summer, but the next three (I hope dearly) I
can already tell will mean the world. everyone should have that kind of
experience. |
