even though you doubt you will ever find the right words, even though you think it will sound cliche or naive or incoherent, even though you're afraid that people, yourself included, will lose interest or misunderstand or have a little less faith in you,
it's worth the struggle to voice what's in your mind and heart. just get it out there. push yourself out of the soil and into the sunlight, make yourself visible, fulfill the God-given purpose for you, uniquely you.

today, I am thankful for friends who care enough to make sure that I get thoroughly listened to after I thoroughly listen to them. I am thankful for friends who believe in me enough to draw out the thoughts and feelings clamoring in the abyss inside this body.
