I'm doing 21 things
I think that this is another goal that is more progressional than just being done at a certain point. I feel like I am making progress though. Usually I watch very carefully what I say around people I do not know very well or just do not feel comfortable with, but I am starting to open up more. I enjoy life more when I let people get to know the real me instead of trying to fade into the background so that no one notices my flaws. I think I just do this out of fear that if people actually get to know me then they might not like me. I am not sure how to handle that kind of rejection because if they did not know me very well then I could chalk it up to that. When someone actually knows me really well and does not like me though, I am not sure how to deal with that. I just wish I wish I was comfortable enough with myself to not fear the rejection of others. I feel like I should be more mature than this. It makes me wonder if I will ever get over these adolescent feelings.

This is really general, but I think this is my calling. I feel the best when I am helping others and I am helping to actively change the things that I hate about the world instead of just complaining about it or sitting back and being a part of the problem. I’m not sure that I will ever be done with this goal.
