Wow, sharing.
Sharing myself is something I have always struggled with. I share more at face value, but deeper more emotional issues, not so much. Most people I meet don't know I really am an emotional person, I just don't open up that much about what's true to me. I open up a lot to my husband; he gets to hear all my emotional baggage, lucky him. To open up to others seems too foreign to me, too vulnerable.
Since getting out of high school, many many years ago, I've only considered one of my friends as someone I truly open up to and share everything with. That I have felt secure enough to share with. Sad right? I know. I'm more of a protect your heart rather then heal your heart type of girl. Guess that hasn't been working for me, huh.
So, all this still leaves me in the same spot, who do I share this experience with? Who will be my cheerleaders? Who will I step off that ledge with and say, "Here what do you think?" I don't know...
Guess I just identified my small step for this week. I'm a little scared...
