The older you get, ...I completely agree with Grace. The older you get, the more comfortable you become in your own skin, and also, the more you realize that it's precisely our vulnerability that brings us together as humans. We don't admire the people who never fuck up or the people who have a glib answer for everything. In fact, we end up hating to be around those people because they make us hate ourselves for our imperfections. <br /><br />We love the people who are brave enough to say, "Yes I am sad today" or "Yes, you did hurt my feelings." We look up to the people who share with us their stories about how they tripped in front of everyone, or had spinach stuck in their teeth during the entire super important work meeting they had to speak at.<br /><br />And the other thing you realize as you get older is that everyone else is so worried about the spinach in their own teeth that no one's even looking at yours.Minima Sapalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04682264432345259655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7609860056516168241.post-70394929895654038692010-08-24T20:06:41.104-07:002010-08-24T20:06:41.104-07:00Life!!

Something about turning 50 makes you comfortable with your own skin and you learn that your job is to like yourself and forget what others think because it isn't their job.<br />When I do one of those humiliating events (which I still do...only yesterday)I just brush it off with the thought, "Like that hasn't happened to anyone else!" and go on and try and do better. Certainly takes the stress out of life.<br />Your a beautiful writer so your going to get through this.<br />So glad I found you through Follow Us Monday Morning.<br />GraceGracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15753868732700790414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7609860056516168241.post-19665797727466540912010-08-23T06:30:19.052-07:002010-08-23T06:30:19.052-07:00Following you from Monday Morning Blog Hop.

I don't take humiliation well at all. Why do I do forty-four pushups per day? Not for my health, but because I HAVE to make sure I look hot if I ever run into my ex-boyfriends. Why do I study everything I can get my hands on? Because I have to look smart in case I run into any arrogant professors I've clashed with in the past. You know, that kind of thing. I'm sure it's not healthy, but it does bring some benefits to my health and book knowledge! And I suppose it's better than, you know, punching people in the face or something!

In helping them, we are becoming that better person. That being said, only you can make you happy, so each of us does need to recognize that fact and make strides every day to give to our own needs and wants. This is does not mean indulging in a huge shopping spree; rather, we need to take the time to listen inside and find out what does make us happy.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06003384586082557583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7609860056516168241.post-86534250716763100922010-08-20T01:16:29.601-07:002010-08-20T01:16:29.601-07:00Following you from Friendly Friday Follow.
