All I could think about as I stood there was that sometimes life gave you a tragedy that burned everything you knew to the ground and changed you completely.

And sometimes, sometimes, you could grow something beautiful from the ashes that were left behind. If you were lucky.

I've wasted a lot of time in my life. I've thought too much about what people will say or what they're gonna think.

All because I was scared someone might look at me and decide I wasn't good enough.
