Thank you, Alison.. That saying popped into my head, too, the other day.. Those who mind don't matter, those who matter don't mind.

That would so be the best way to think about blushing, that it simply doesn't matter. I always worry people will say something about it because that just makes it worse.. But I also think I need to accept that I have no control over what other people will say or do.. All I have control over is what I say and do..

Having an accident would be soooo embarrassing, but I have to find the courage to go out even though it might happen.. I'm sick of being a prisoner in my own home.

It's SO hard to believe I'm actually worth something after all this time of believing the opposite, but I'm going to try and keep your kind words in my mind..
