I've been struggling with blushing for 15 years now, ever since I was bullied for it in high school. I've been trying to work on it and had been doing better, but today when I went to the grocery store, I felt my face reddening the moment I got to the cash register. I didn't even do anything embarrassing, the thought 'What if I blush now?' just popped into my head and caused it..

I asked myself 'So what if I blush?' and heard 'It means I'm a bad/lesser person than others..' Then something I've never thought before popped into my head - 'No it doesn't, it just means I'm shy..'

It was such an empathetic and endearing thought that made me feel all warm inside, like for the first time in my life, someone accepts me for being shy. It was amazing I'm so thrilled I'm learning to love myself as I am, not as I think others want me to be!
