I don't care what other people think of me.
I don't care what other people say about me.
I don't care that other people are advocating my demise.
When I first started blogging, such a suggestion would have crippled me emotionally. I would have been wounded; I would have obsessed about it.
Now, I can say with all honesty that I really don't care.
If the comment had come from someone I respected, from someone who's opinion I valued or someone who I cared about, then I would be hurt.
But, it didn't, ergo: I don't.
So, why am I blogging about it?
Because I want to show people that I don't care. I want to show people how far I have come. I want to celebrate this accomplishment, and have other people celebrate with me.
I am still standing...and I am still here.
