I could barley talk to people let alone new people, there was a new girl transferring to our class. She sat on  a chair in the computer room (because that's where we were at the time) nobody talked to her then because we would have gotten in trouble but after class people started talking to her. She was surrounded by a group of girls, all of them talking loudly and laughing. My friend asked me if we should join them and I objected. I just couldn't bring myself to talk to her because I was too nervous to even approach her. Throughout the whole year we never became friends or even had one solid conversation. I was too afraid to talk to her and lost the opportunity to meet a new person and make a new friend. 

This relates to the theme because it demonstrates a time that fear took control over my decisions and restricted me from doing something as simple as talking to someone. It shows that fear held me back from making a friend therefore holding me back in life. ]]> 2021-08-17 16:19:02 UTC https://padlet.com/rsalgueirohernandez/cytuuf5two9e0svz/wish/1682466779 rsalgueirohernandez https://padlet.com/rsalgueirohernandez/cytuuf5two9e0svz/wish/1682470651 When I was younger I had basically no sense of direction. I would frequently get lost inside stores when we went shopping I would mindlessly wander the store on the verge of crying because I had lost my mom. I would continue to stay lost longer than I should have been because I could not build up the courage to go up to one of the employees and ask for help. I really thought that I would be bothering them, and I was scared to feel like a nuisance to them. (Not sure how my kid mind came up with the idea that I would be bothering an employee whose there to help costumers). like dang im pretty dumb... :D 
This corresponds to the theme "Fear can hold you back in life" because it shows that because I was scared to ask for help and continued to stay lost due to my fear.

I never knew and still don't know what to do when someone starts crying. I just wrap my arm around them and then stare into space. In my head a flood of comforting words fill my head but somehow never manage to escape. I have many things that would comfort them but I can never build up the courage to say them. I get sacred that maybe I will say something dumb or accidentally insult their mother or make them uncomfortable or something. I think its an irrational fear or something. 🤔
This relates to the theme because it demonstrates yet another time where fear took control of me and held me back from something.  🧍]]> 2021-08-17 16:21:13 UTC https://padlet.com/rsalgueirohernandez/cytuuf5two9e0svz/wish/1682471094 rsalgueirohernandez https://padlet.com/rsalgueirohernandez/cytuuf5two9e0svz/wish/1715568815 2021-09-03 15:49:44 UTC https://padlet.com/rsalgueirohernandez/cytuuf5two9e0svz/wish/1715568815 rsalgueirohernandez https://padlet.com/rsalgueirohernandez/cytuuf5two9e0svz/wish/1715580463 2021-09-03 15:55:07 UTC https://padlet.com/rsalgueirohernandez/cytuuf5two9e0svz/wish/1715580463
