You decide whether you look at your reality or live pretending these feelings don’t exist.

The word ‘confession,’ to me, means needing to be absolved. I’m not asking for forgiveness. I’m not asking people to understand. I’d like to think that I tell stories and sometimes my life weaves through it.

I don’t allow challenges to trip me up.
