Meeeeee

I am the same but different. In high school I was a shadow. I didn't want to talk to anyone because I was afraid of them not liking me. I was insecure and a never wanted to be out of my comfort zone. I thought everyone hated me and I always felt out of place and like a different person. I grew up a little and learned some things which I'm very glad to have learned. Now I live in Tennessee where there are no strings attached. No family name to worry about. No religious obligations. No expectations to live up to. I could be Kurt. Today it even amazes me about how much I changed. From never talking to anyone to talking to people I've never met before. I do what I want because I don't care what people think. I'll talk to anyone. I'll go to events where I don't know anyone and just talk to everyone. It is uncomfortable sometimes but the fact that i've constantly put myself in that situation is amazing. It sounds like I'm bragging but I'm not. My point is.... I'm myself here. I don't have to fake it for people. I don't have to pretend to protect a name. It's awesome. Everyone should try it.
