Reflection

What is this?
I don't recognize this feeling
I'm not afraid
Of what tomorrow holds
I'm not ashamed of me
I'm actually feeling...
Quite bold.
Vibrant
Alive
And dare I say free
What is this?
Who is this?
I know now
That's me!
That's my smile
My laugh
Did I just bat my eyes?
That's my confidence
My joy
That's my pride
Been a long time coming
This reflection of me
Gone is that little girl
Of timidity
So I'll strut
Sashay
While these heels click
Pause
Smile and wink
Cuz I'm a brand new chick.

Mental Health Pandemic

This is more or less an impulsive post. After many years, for the first time, I decided to watch Good Will Hunting. Of course, I'd seen it referenced in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, but I'd never once actually seen the movie. I was quite shocked to see that Robin Williams was in this movie. Although the movie was an award-winning drama and was meant to play at your emotions, the entire time I couldn't help but feel saddened by the absence of Robin Williams in real life.
