Biggest Regret

What did you learn from your biggest regret?

Mrs. Brewer...I think her name was. She was my AP American History teacher in high school.

She refused to sign off on me taking the AP exam.

And so...I didn't.

And I could've. I didn't need her permission to do it.

I regret letting her stop me. I let that old bitch tell me what to do. I let myself believe she was right, and that I wasn't worthy. And she was wrong. That bitch was wrong.

I'm still trying to find my worth even now, but man, that hurt.

Lesson learned? Never to doubt myself. Never to let someone who is an authority cause me to question what I can do. Not to let someone take my power like that ever again.

I mean, It worked out in the end, but what if I had missed an opportunity because of that? What if there's something else I could have done and I missed it b/c I listened to some idiot?

Ugh. Never again.

Trust yourself. Trust your gut. And even if doubt yourself, do it anyway. Don't let someone naysay what you can do.
