One of my most awkward but also empowering moments when I asked not to participate in a pray circle before a drama act we were to do for a competition. We had an atheist in our class, nice guy, blunt, and rather funny, he always didn't participate for obvious reasons. I did so out of fear of being looked at weird. Given that I was when I opted out, like I was wearing my weirdness for all to see. But I also made me prouder in myself for showing that I wasn't going to be cowed by what was expected of me over what I really thought.
What about you, ever had an experience like this? Or something stranger?
