I guess nothing lasts forever, and I should value what I have before it is gone. Yet, I am caging myself. Were you ever hesitant about freeing yourself? I know it sounds like a strange question, but I am fearful for what lies outside my ideas of self-doubt. What if I actually am a failure in reality?
