Boats in the harbor
There’s a saying that goes: “A ship in harbor is safe, but that’s not what ships are built for.” But is it really? I have spent most of my life trying not to feel inadequate. My brain had me convinced it’s too dangerous . . . too painful. My life choices reflect this pain intolerance. […]
