Chapter 1: The long road to acceptance
The long road to acceptance
I can’t help but feel like I’m on a long and winding road towards acceptance. I’m not sure why, but I can feel it in the air around me. I’m far from sure of the emotions I’m experiencing, or the meaning behind them.
The people around me seem to understand more than they let on, and I’m learning more every day. I want to be accepted by those I care about, but I also worry that I’m too flawed; too broken at my core to be capable of such a thing.
I replay countless conversations in my head, my mouth forming the words I never said out loud. I find myself drawn towards two different paths, and yet I cannot bring myself to choose either one.
My first instinct is to push forward and seek out those who I trust to talk to.
