“I have realized; it is during the times I am far outside my
element that I experience myself the most. That I see and feel who I really am,
the most! I think that's what a comet is like, you see, a comet is born in the
outer realms of the universe! But it's only when it ventures too close to our
sun or to other stars that it releases the blazing "tail" behind it
and shoots brazen through the heavens! And meteors become sucked into our
atmosphere before they burst like firecrackers and realize that they're
shooting stars! That's why I enjoy taking myself out of my own element, my own
comfort zone, and hurling myself out into the unknown. Because it's during
those scary moments, those unsure steps taken, that I am able to see that I'm
like a comet hitting a new atmosphere: suddenly I illuminate magnificently and
fire dusts begin to fall off of me! I discover a smile I didn't know I had, I
uncover a feeling that I didn't know existed in me... I see myself. I'm a
shooting star. A meteor shower. But I'm not going to die out. I guess I'm more
like a comet then. I'm just going to keep on coming back.”
