I almost didn’t send this

We are both standing on the same edge, just in a different context.

The fear is almost identical on both sides.

They hesitate because they think, “I don’t look like the women in the photos.” I hesitate because I think, “I don’t write like a writer.”

I say to women, it’s not about perfection, it’s about honesty.

And here I am, searching for the perfect words.

Even now, sitting here in the gallery, thinking about sending this.

While they are walking past my windows, thinking about stepping in.

Same hesitation, just mirrored.
