I've always really liked the idea of pushing yourself to do things you're afraid of, or even reluctant to do. (Maybe not always always, but... it's been a Thought for awhile.)
Walking around in a big city by yourself is a scary thing. It's awesome you saw stuff!
Or there was the time this weekend when I drove myself out of the city and up to the Macbride Nature Recreation Area, and participated in a wilderness survival camping experience.
This sounds so cool.
But yes. I think there is something incredibly empowering in overcoming something you fear. It's a wonderful, important thing and it's inspiring to hear that you're doing it.
