last night was difficult. i went into the city for a friend’s 21st and i was nervous. i’d forgotten how much i hate walking through busy bars and have people look at me, and the awkward conversations with people i don’t know.

it reminded me of how far i still have to go. but, i have to keep reminding myself that i just need to take little steps. and the fact i went out at all was a step in the right direction.
