For a long time, I’ve been self-conscious, ashamed of my looks, the way I sound, and never liked pictures or videos of myself. From a young age, I’ve had low self-esteem, triggered not only by external sources but also by internal sources. Believing the lies others told me and told myself.

Fast forward to adulthood. Same thing. Or at least it used to be. Slowly but surely coming out of my protective shell. Could it be me getting older? Could it just be me not giving a crap anymore? Or is it because I’m letting my guard down more and more and just living life the best way I can?

Life’s a journey,  not a race. We need to take our time and reflect. Pick up tools and knowledge along the way to get us to the finish…slow and steady, right? Isn’t that how the story goes? For myself, I finally realized this. The road to bettering yourself isn’t always easy, but at the same time, it’s laid out for you. Why not take advantage.

So not only will I continue to write my ramblings here, but I’ve been posting videos and pictures on the socials. Sometimes, you just have to take the leap. You have to break out of your shell and not be so sheltered. You miss out on so much, letting life pass you by. But remember,  slow and steady wins the race.
