Just Doing It
So, today is the day I step immensely intensely over my comfort zone and do something I haven’t done in a long time - I’m rising up.
This is one of the those moments that will be over before I know it, but it will be something that can drastically impact my life - not just because of WHAT I am doing, but simply because I am.
I am risking a lot of rejection, fear, and hate by putting my body on the line (and possibly on the internet). But the sacrifice is worth the risk. If young folks don’t have to grow up so focused on changing their bodies, they can focus on changing the world - that’s always been the plan and this, hopefully, is one way that I can do it.
It’s not going to impact those children firsthand, but instead it is going to impact the folks who raise those kids and the things they say and the way they say it.
I have to remember that my job is not to impact every single person in that room, but rather to impact A single person.
It’s not about doing it all, but about just doing it at all.
