Gayle - I had to learn over time that whatever anyone else thinks or does is none of my business! (Got that from someone in a 12 step group)

Or - this is a saying I like: The person who worries about what others think of him/her wouldn't worry so much if he/she knew how seldom they DO.

On the other hand, you have come out of a very controlling and abusive situation quite recently. You were told and shown you were 'less than.'

Know what? THEY LIED! Again, over time, make up your own wonderful stuff about yourself, and that will be true for you!

Slick - I am definitely into a mini PT meeting! Gayle?

OK...I wouldn't mind changing my crooked lower teeth. And maybe a couple of grooves in my face...but overall, I like me.
