I had answers I knew were right and yet was afraid to say them.

Every time I spoke with a person, they would always speak to me in a convincing way. They had confidence in their thoughts.

My own thoughts, reasonings, readings and research always felt inadequate.

It was as if all the thoughts in my head were meant to be challenged and squashed. I just accepted that every person I spoke with was much smarter than I was.

Then I met with highly intelligent people…

And realized most of the people I’ve spoken with in my life are full of crap.

I’m no longer afraid to speak up, to challenge and to provoke.

And if I’m wrong, which happens often,
I’m not afraid to change my way of thinking.

I won’t ever get it all
or get it right.
But I’m getting closer every day.
