It really is. Especially for someone who is not outgoing by nature. I wish I'd been able to do the parade this year because it would have been easier to "deliberately stand out" with my safety net of friends around me, and it might've made me a few additional contacts within the church. Even still, though, I'm glad I went. It felt great to be a part of something like that, even from the sidelines! :)
