I’d get in the car and start driving. I’d go and have the conversation I’ve been afraid to have for years
… or I’d be paralyzed with fear like I’ve been for the rest of my life.
… or if I’m being honest, I’d most likely grab a bottle of tequila, fall off the wagon, and find out what I actually want to do that way.
