Getting in before the rush.

I saw this in lisew and girlyskin's LJs this morning and decided to post it tonight when I got home, only to find it's catching on. So, before everyone is swamped:

Ask me a question. A question about myself, my life, personal, su p erficial, inappropriate, whatever and I will answer it the best I can.

Some answers I may friends lock if they affect others, but otherwise, fire away!i

"And love is not the easy thing
The only baggage that you can bring
Love is not the easy thing
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can't leave behind."

I was listening to this on your mix CD today, and it seemed appropriate. :)

What baggage do you wish you could leave behind? What makes it hardest for you to walk on?

I've been thinking on this one throughout the day. Tough question.

I'd have to say my fear of rejection. The feeling that people won't like/love me. It holds me back in so many ways, and it's so deep-rooted it's taking a lot of work to get over. Partly because of trying to get my father's attention as a kid (he was never at home, it seemed), partly because of my high school experiences, where I went from years eight to ten with no friends at all, and those I had in year eleven became my friends out of pity. And my relationship with BRM - he exacerbated that feeling by his criticism of me, especially of the way I behave in a social situation (he says I talk about myself too much).

It's baggage I'm working on ditching - it just is particularly persistent.e

*grins* I like that you talk.

Because I talk way too much too. :) So I get someone who'll actually talk for that long with me. These non-talkers, no stamina, I swear. :)

*hugs* And you are liked and loved. Yes, I know this was an answer to a question. But, heck. Sometimes the best way to get rid of something, is some nice positive reinforcement. :)
