Confusion and Hope

So this week marks another time in my life where I reflect. 10 months ago I was diagnosed with Anxiety. A condition of my life that I am still trying to grasp. I was told by many to keep it silent and not say anything because some people would not get it and understand.
 
In 22 days, I get my wisdom teeth out. Again not a significant thing for most but I have a point of saying this. When I went to the dentist, people were very supportive of me having to have the teeth out. People were so compassionate about the pain I must be feeling or how I must be coping with the issues associated with the pain and discomfort. So what is different?
 
It's the issue of acceptance. People will allow themselves to be who they want to be by accepting what they want to accept. Some are scared of the unseen because they can't qualify it.
 
It's interesting to not though that I see many aspects of my life where I do the exact same thing.
 
What am I confused about?
 
  • Taking a risk on someone or something
  • Taking a chance on a dream without failing.
  • Realising that I am far less perfect than my imperfections show and knowing that most of that is beyond my control.
  • Knowing that I will never be good enough for some but want to still at least try.
What are my hopes?


Simple. That I will one day look back and realise that life is teaching me some very valuable lessons.
