I fell into a burning ring of fire. I went down, down, down, and the flames went higher

Dearest Readers,
Sometimes, whether you know the outcome or not, you have a Jump. And as a wise girl once said, "Don't be afraid to Jump then Fall." And that's what I did. I jumped. I took a chance. And sadly, I fell. But learn from me. Face your fears. There is one quote I always live by, said by a girl who knows a lot about boys and love and life: The full quote is:

 "Real life is a funny thing, you know. In real life, saying the right thing at the right moment is beyond crucial. So crucial, in fact, that most of us start to hesitant for fear of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. But lately what I've begun to fear more than that is letting the moment pass without saying anything. I think you deserve to look back on  your life without this chorus of resounding voices saying, 'I could've but it's too late now'. So  there's a time for silence, and there's a time for
waiting your turn. But if you know how you feel, and you so clearly know what you need to say, you'll know it. I don't think you should wait. I think you should speak now."

Despite my fear of rejection, yes I do have that fear, I finally lived by that quote. And it hurt, but at least now I know, right?
