Scared.

I recently read a little motivational line which said:

"Do one thing a day that scares you."

I feel that I achieved that yesterday. I was scared to go and meet my neighbours as I become quite shy around new people. I'm scared of the initial walk in to a room full of new people. I'm scared I may run out of things to say. I'm scared I will say the wrong thing. I'm scared of what people may think of me. I know that this is something that I shouldn't be scared of, but I am working on getting better at it.

Anyway, I buckled myself all up and walked to their place with a glass of red in my hand (liquid courage was required this time) and knocked on the door..

I of course had nothing to worry about, they were so welcoming and lovely and we talked for hours and I know I have made some good friends out of the whole experience.

I smiled to myself as I lay down to sleep. I did one thing that scared me and the results were positive.

Although, today was not quite as successful...

I realised something else that scares me and I didn't confront it.

My housemates had a slight argument and I was terrified. I hate conflict. I don't deal well with it at all. I hid in my room.

Perhaps I'll face that another day..
