As I am sitting in this small diner at the edge of the Bible Belt, I am keenly aware that everything I am thinking about—everything I want in my life—is inappropriate.

At least to them.

I find that my distaste with society stems from what I see. Every day.

Plus, what I have been taught. From day one.

Yet, it is time to push beyond these limits. Nothing worthwhile was ever obtained by staying within these limits.

The women in my life deserve no less. It is well beyond time for me to show up. For me to find my “edge” and to move beyond it.

Into the unknown.

Correction: into MY unknown.
