WDP — I Don’t Care

Tell us one thing you hope people never say about you.

I’m neither perfect nor flawless. But I accept my imperfections and my flaws.

I can be cranky and crotchety and angry and impatient. But I can also be kind and generous and witty and empathetic and happy. I can hate and I can love. I am human, no different from most other humans.

The truth is, though, when you reach a certain age — my age, for example — you just don’t really care anymore what other people think or say about you. It’s not like I’m going to change. I am who I am. As far as I’m concerned, people need to accept me for who I am or move along. Makes no difference to me.

    I wish I was like you. I’m so caught up in others opinions I was having suicidal thoughts recently

      Yikes. It’s not worth it. The only real opinion about you that matters is your own.

    Ditto. The beauty of our age…….

    If someone can’t accept you for what you are that is their problem not yours…..
