Hi, It's me Stephany
I like this picture but I don't know what

is happening with my hand. See this is like language learning. You do really well with one area but there's another area that you say " What is going on?" So you don't talk or wish you were better.So many people hide their flaws. I hide my flaws too. I want perfection. Using a filter to hide behind is safe. Not speaking until it's perfect is safe and comfortable. But growth doesn't happen from comfortablility You gotta put yourself out there..

Nothing is learned by pretending, other than learning to pretend.

@Engy ibrahim Thank you for your compliment. It's a filter. I am a language learner and a teacher. I loveeeeeeeeeerereeeeee writing. When I am able to find the perfect word I feel like squealing. In this app everything is text. When Covid gets better I am going to start lin person anguage exchanges again.

@Da LORDs kid call me Sean Actually I disagree. Kids learn a ton from pretending. I learn too from copying
