I don't think you can prepare for the pain that is being rejected for simply who you are, not that I've experienced it often but I can tell you when you care who says it, it's like a hot iron rod down your throat, burning and charring all the way down to your stomach where you'll want to puke it up
It doesn't matter why
Even a simple rejection to trying a cookie could result in devastating consequences but we should not hold others or ourselves liable for feelings
Feelings arent currently trackable, or predictable in any way yet we pretend to know what is appropriate and inappropriate to say at anytime
Well at least I assume other people assume they know what is proper and is not, I have never assumed myself to know anything other then what I know which even then is subject to change as my synapses form and die
I do not wish to give the impression that I am preaching my uncaring humbleness as I in fact care too much about what others think of me as I believe it will stop them from wanting to help or be helped by me
I wish to have a tolerant community or better yet a patient one but it must start with me as I am the most impatient person I know and still find myself offending more then I've been offended
I wish I had a community that I knew for sure was as curious about each other as I was but till I'm ready to put my ears out there the small true community I have now will very much suffice
