The Boston Area Rape Crisis Center is holding a training session on June 4th for its Survivor Speakers Bureau.

I should apply; I want to do that. I am afraid to apply; what if I can't?

But you will only know if you can after the training session.

I can only give you the piece of advice I always give myself when there's something I want to do, but that I'm afraid of: you will always regret the things you didn't do the most. There's no shame in trying something and failing, but if you never even try, you will always be ashamed.

And, bb, if you can't, if you go to the training and it doesn't work for you, these people won't judge you. They know what's it like.

I suppose I am less concerned with whether I can do it at all (because I can), but whether I can do it well (I am not known for my public speaking abilities, to say the least). So it's worth trying.
