“Bill Denbrough Beats the Devil”
Guest-Directed Self-Portrait #7, Directed by mortalcompass
I’d avoided this prompt for some time. Upon reading it several months ago, I knew in my gut that the coin I’d flip would land on “tails” and that I’d have to go out in public and get someone to ask me what I’m doing. On many levels, this terrified me. I flipped the coin anyway. As I predicted, it landed on tails.
Something most people don’t know about me: I grapple with anxiety and haven’t left the house alone in many years. Another thing most people don’t know about me: I often feel like an impostor. When I’m out in public, even so much as an aisle away from my husband in the grocery store, I always feel like someone will find me out and say, “What are you doing here? You shouldn’t be here! Who let you out?!” It’s a horrible feeling. I love the world, and I like being out in it, but my mind bangs with these sorts of thoughts all the time. It is, in a word, exhausting.
As a challenge to myself and my incessant mind, I set out to complete GDSP #7 on my own, alone. Today, I walked to a park near my house, toting a backpack, a camera and tripod, and a porcelain cat figure. My head pounded and my stomach was in knots the entire way. Despite my anxiety, I marched into the woods, which is actually part of a popular disc golf course, and started to set up my shots.
Several times, groups of young men strolled by and stared at me, but none of them asked what I was doing. I guess they didn’t think much of a young woman and a cat doll, hanging out in the woods. Had I not exhausted my courage for the day, perhaps I would’ve danced or sung or spoken in tongues. Instead, I just kept shooting.
Technically, I failed at this prompt - but, on some level, I feel victorious.
