Excellent. Were you writing about me? I too have recently decided I don't care about embarrassing myself and I too have decided to take risks more frequently. I also have decided to be more open to getting to know more people with whom I otherwise have only been acquainted, but by whom I've been intimidated. Like you. So there you have it!
Wonderful, revelatory essay, Diane! Your imp and mine must be best buddies. My imp was mentored by my very critical, military trained father, who crushed almost every dream with comments about ultimate impossibility. So, congratulations for looking your doubts in the eye and forging ahead anyway. That takes real courage. And look what you’ve accomplished!! xxx

Thanks for reading... writing about all of us I suppose :)

Thank you for reading Pam! I suspect we all have our own personal imps. Perhaps they should all get together. And go away :)
