Almost Brave

Take that first step before you're brimming with courage. The protagonist has been putting off everything-from confessing their feelings to taking on new challenges-thinking, "I'll do it once I'm more confident." But time keeps moving forward even while they wait to be fully prepared. Even if their voice trembles or they stumble over their words, today they'll try striking up a conversation on their own. Rather than striving to be perfectly strong, this is an anthem of encouragement that celebrates the self who took action despite their fears-just as they are.
