Don’t Be So Hard On Yourself

Jamie — Wed, 26 Nov 2014 13:03:19 +0000

The weight of expectation is crushing. Yet nobody is saying a word. I’m not hearing voices, nor can I feel the penetrative gaze of a thousand beady eyes, all fixated on my very being; anticipating something magical and wondrous to emerge from these hesitant fingers. But it’s there. I stare […]
