What!!???

So today at work, I told a co-worker a dark secret. Well, that might be going to far. It was just a secret that I have kept at work for a while. It was nice to be able to voice my true feelings/opinions, but at the same time, I felt quite strange. Why did I hide who I really was. It got me thinking about what is the right thing to do. I never lied about this (except one tiny lie, when I was backed into a corner.) So now I am really thinking...is this what I want to teach Kathryn. Conformity is not the answer. If someone really holds what you believe over your head, especially if it is extremely different from their own beliefs, many I should not want that person in my life. I really did soul searching on my hour drive home and thought of some ways to change my outlook. I am really going to stand up for things that I truly believe in, even if it is not always the "Popular" choice. Over the next few days and weeks I will see if I can hold myself accountable for this new mission in life. I will be meeting up to 20 new people tomorrow night at my first class. They will be from various backgrounds and have different beliefs. It is my personal goal to stick to my guns and not take the path of least resistances, just because it seems easier. I will see how it goes.
