Guest guest Posted November 29, 2003 Report Share Posted November 29, 2003 I don't remember most of my childhood either. I only remember patches here and there and they are starting to come back to me. I mostly think that I don't remember them because they were very painful. People here (Utah) are not very accepting of things that are different. or at least people that are different. They are a lot better now but it is still a struggle. I do know that the last person to tease me was a stupid boy in junior high. He asked " Can you be blindfolded with dental floss? " my response to him, " You couldn't come up with something more origignal? " I had heard that so many times before. I walked away from him just rolling my eyes. I do know that it is a bit easier for us women since we can wear makeup that helps to make the eyes look bigger. Also I have found with my dancing (bellydancing)I can put jewels on either side of my eyes and it looks amazing. My dancing has also given me amazing self confidence. It takes a lot of guts to get out there and dance in your skimpy costume. I have gotten so many compliments on how exotic I look. That is one thing I have going for me. I don't really look like anyone that the audience has ever seen before whether it is the dancing and the costume or my beautiful blue eyes. I found my self confidence through trial and error and really big jerk as a fiance. I finally realized who I was and what I wanted and did not want in my life. When I found my husband he supported me spiritually from the very start. Also just recently I found this site and I feel as though a huge burden has been lifted from my shoulders. I now a huge bounce in my step feeling like I can take on the world!! I will post pictures as soon as I can figure out this new fangled thing. I finally got them scanned onto a disc I just can't figure how to get them from the computer to the site. any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
