Undercover agent

Dangereuse is the secret agent sent to discover the real goings-on in “the life of Amy”. The whys and wherefores. The stuff under the stuff. Dangereuse is not only the me I want to be, she is the one who knows what’s underneath all the seemingly nonsensical actions I take.

Why do I think of her as undercover? Because she is, quite literally, the person hiding under all the experiences. She’s the personality I’ve been covering up. Suppressed. Inhibited. And almost completely forgotten.

In her undercover role, Dangereuse has seen everything I’ve seen. Experienced it all. Lived it. She totally gets me.

Unlike me, she doesn’t cling to the stories about the not-good-very-bad-things-that-happened. Yeah, they did happen (fact). Yeah, it was awful while it was happening. But those things happened in the past and do not need to define the future. And they definitely should not outweigh the many amazing things that have also happened.
