The Willingness to be Vulnerable

[Plenum]

I do have a painful memory, but I am unable to wall it off and forget it, because it was just too intense.

yeah Gemini, there are some things that take time to work through.

I have a few of those.

one was when I was about 6 months into chinese school, and we were just starting to learn to read the written script. When it came to my turn to read out loud, I was totally paralyzed with fear and confusion and couldn't utter a single syllable. I thought everyone was laughing at me and that no-one would be friends with me after that because I was so stupid and dumb. It is one that I skirt around, and think has been fully processed and yet it still lingers.
