I haven't often made new year's resolutions, but this year I have decided that making one will help me to achieve something that will help make my life better. This year I have decided I must be brave.
I don't show it very much, in fact I work very hard to hide it, but I am afraid quite a lot. Social contact scares me only slightly less (and sometimes slightly to a lot more) than I crave it.
My PhD has eroded quite a lot of my self-confidence and, other things included, this year has been emotionally extremely difficult. But I can and I will sort things out. I must be brave enough to pursue the things that are important to me and to hold on when I am so afraid they are unattainable.
There's so much more I wish I could say, but it's not my narrative to express in such a public forum. I know I am strong, I know I am patient, I know I am supportive, but I must learn now also to be brave. For me and for us.

You are one of the bravest people I am proud to know. So, you can do it. Come on home, now, we miss you. xxx Twitterati? I'm emilyrose_uk - see you there? |
