The world will be a better place to have your story and your perspective out in the world. To you it feels like an indulgence, but to the rest of us it is a new perspective.

Keep up the good work. And if you feel shy about sending out your writing, what helped me was getting a few good people to read it and give me feedback. Once they told me it wasn't all in my head and it did have merit, I felt I could let the rest of the world see it.
