When I am standing tall, 5'3" is barefoot height. 5'4" and you are short too. In my younger days I could grow taller w/ heels but now I would probably fall off of them. Ha ha

Yes, being smallish has blessings and curses too. When I assert myself I have to grow inside out lol.
A lot of old stuff comes up. I do dislike when people I am speaking with look down at me, or over my head
I feels oddly harmful or threatening somehow....

The personal space issue has been ongoing though. Either feels invading or incompetant. Worse that I should care...
