It is funny how much other people’s comments can affect us.
Watching the comments about my video on YouTube I am reminded of how kind
people are. How supportive even strangers can be. But every once in a while I
get a comment from a hater and it takes a minute to remind myself that these
cruel words don’t matter. It is almost as if I need ten good comments to make
me feel OK about the cruel one. So why do I even care? First off, I don’t know
these people; they have no control of my life; and they are the small minority
among a huge positive response. I guess it comes down to the fact that it is
difficult to put yourself out there. It is difficult to change the habit of
believing that I might not be good enough. Well the truth is no matter what the outcome
of this process is, I am good enough. I have a huge scaffolding of family,
friends and even strangers that have given me their love and support. I will do
my best to silence the voice of doubt in my head and push forward. Thank you
all for supporting me.
