A YEAR

... and so it has been, a year.

One year since my world erupted.

One year since I began.

One year since I decided safe inaction was far more painful than a frightening leap; that authenticity rings truer than make-believe integrity and character masquerade.

One year since I realized I matter.

It's been a year. I'm wiser, yet foolish. I'm happier, yet forlorn. I'm stronger, yet delicate.

For one year I've done it on my own. And that has made all the difference.

"Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step." - Martin Luther King, Jr.
