It wasn't that bad: yes, a bit awkward but I had never done that before. You laughed at me... said I looked like a drug addict... Then you said it was just a joke - that you were having a giggle.... That I am too wrapped up in myself.
Why do I care so much? Why does it bother me to have your acceptance? Why do I look for other's approval instead of valuing my own opinion?
I am doing the self work: these questions I ask myself and allow the subconscious and conscious mind to guide.
