My hands were shaking and sweating. I look at my legs, they tremble involuntarily without my own will. In the room the air conditioner marked 5 degrees, but even then I sounded so much to the point that my forehead is dripping. The host of the ceremony announces my name and says to those present that I will come soon to utter my words. It's not easy to handle nervousness. I take a deep breath, count to 3 and enter the main hall.
In front of me, the fright. A crowded hall full of people, maybe 400, 500 people thirsty to hear what I have to talk about. Thirsty for knowledge, a word of hope, a word of encouragement, comfort and motivation. Before reading the speech that I spent all night writing and training without sleep, I look at each of the presents, which gives me more fear. I begin by reading my speech in a low and nervous voice.
It's not easy. The sentences, to me, are meaningless and I cannot convey emotion in the idea that I want to pass. I look at the face of each person in front of me and feel that they are bored. Some yawn sleepily, but they resist wanting to hear what I have to say, others shake their heads and fold their arms as if disagreeing or are don't believing anything in what I'm talking about.
Those 5 minutes that would last my speech, it seems that it became 5 o'clock and at the end of it by surprise: Applause and whistles as if congratulations on my words said. All my negative expectations of before and during my speech were broken and what was left at the end were various handshakes, thanks and hugs.
Friends, this is one of my writings that whenever I am not photographing, I am writing. Inspiration comes and along with my imagination and sense of fiction, I can transfer to paper my thoughts and feelings. I hope you have enjoyed it.
Amigos, esse é um dos escritos de minha autoria que sempre quando não estou fotografando, estou escrevendo. A inspiração vem e juntamente com a minha imaginação e senso de ficção, eu consigo transferir para o papel os meus pensamentos e sentimentos. Espero que vocês tenham apreciado.

Thanks for reading my post and stay tuned for the next posts!
Obrigado por ter lido o meu post e fiquem atentos às minhas próximas postagens!
Very well described... I have had to do these presentations to a lot of people, and it has always been very scary, and I am glad when it is over. People tell me I am quite "good" at it, but I still don't like it... I'm a writer and prefer to work alone in my office!
The nervousness in front of a presentation is always difficult. At first I had a lot of trouble, but today fear is no longer part. I can handle a presentation well.
well done!
Thank you
