Momentarily, I convinced myself I could be someone.
Then reality intervened and reminded me no, no I couldn’t.
There I was, thinking I have leadership potential.
I know my stuff, I’m competent, I have influence.
Ah, but only from behind my keyboard, working quietly away in the background.
But to emerge and stand before a group? To speak up and make myself heard?
Reality reminds me I’m a joke, no different from that boy at school, forever derided.
Honestly, I feel completely deflated, crashing back down to earth with a thud.
