Here is an excerpt that reminds me of a conversation I had last week:
" I went home and walked through my Mom’s kitchen with my head down. Suddenly I heard, “Stop! Come back here.” I turned to face my all-knowing Mom. She looked into my eyes and asked what happened. Choking down tears, I told her my date asked how I can cheer when I can’t even walk. Mom looked at me with empathy, then smiled and asked the golden question I wish I’d thought of an hour earlier . . .
“Did you ask him how he can talk when he can’t even think?”

I was speaking to a woman who is a life long Champion Equestrian rider and she told me she went to a doctor for a physical and he told her her blood pressure was low and she told him that it was normal because she is an athlete, He asked if she was a runner and she said no, she rode and jumped horses. He responded that she wasn't an athlete. I told she should have said she clearly a better athlete than he was a doctor."
This echo's Eileen's life lesson she shares in her blog.
Don't let others ignorance affect your view of your self.
