The awkward firsts, where we now have to shake hands and make small talk to find out whether we really have anything in common to launch an equally enjoyable conversation. Firsts are all but entirely awkward, yet can be somewhat enjoyable. It leaves an opportunity for you to either reinvent yourself, go on a journey of discovery with this other person or simply allowing you to revisit the areas of your life that make up who you are. Many a times I can ease through firsts, but I must admit, this particular first is different, because I have wanted it for so long. It leaves little room to get it wrong, yet getting it right is entirely dependent on you. Yes you, the reader. The one who gets to meet me on the opposite page of this post and can make a decision to either love it, or hate it. No pressure, right? Wrong!
