I am feeling like I'm going to burst. I don't feel like I can trust anyone to not hurt me. I feel completely vulnerable all the time, and unable to just be myself...even the self that is willing to grow feels completely unsure and uanccepted, and so its hard to grow. Its sad, but true that I've had this feeling all my life, and I'm starting to think that there is no other way for me to be. 

I've been trying to let go of all that programming that I got very well schooled in as a young African girl growing up. Its definitely not easy!
