I so get that and am trying to learn how not to worry about what others think. Thanks for the reminder.

MrsPremise says,

It's so amazing. It's like I woke up one day and I just GOT it!!! Trying to pass it on to son, the sooner the better.

BanjoDan says,

Loon says,

Jujeebal says,

I look forward to the day when I see the light and can say as Loon so eloquently put it "fuck'em"

marymc says,

MrsPremise says,

Thankyou everyone.
Now, in unison..."Fuck 'em"!!
(Repeat as needed)

I am feeling quite critical about this memoir. But it is nice to know that you don't care!!!

MrsPremise says,

HA! It's true. I don't.

Bevvie says,

yeah, Mrs.P!

MrsPremise says,

Hey Bevvie!!! How ya doin??? xoxo

Dhani says,

(JOKE:) This is a pathetically lousy memoir! (Well, you said you 'cared' about criticism, yes?)

MrsPremise says,

Ah, but I am 57, Dhani. You are 2 months too late.

MrsPremise says,

Make that 14 months too late.

sisterpoet says,

Loon hit it on the head, saying what hope we all think and act on!

jdsilencio says,

So good! I hope I wake up one morning and just get it.

MrsPremise says,

jd, I'm wondering if we can just make the decision first, and the feeling will follow. Surely, it's an internal dialog long before we believe it! Give it a try and let me know. How wonderful to be able tackle it earlier in your life! Lucky you!!!
