Observation's on embarrassment

[Hanslow]

• Is something you feel when who you our conflicts with who you want to be.
• Is something you feel when you give credence to what people think of you. (This is not always a bad thing.)
• Is self perpetuating. One moment of embarrassment leads to further self reflection on what you should be, which then permeates your actions. Leading you to either be withdrawn in fear of saying or doing something else embarrassing. Or cause you to act out of character and no one is convincing at being anything other than themselves.

It must be said, although I've made these observation's, I don't expect to stop getting embarrassed/ashamed over irrational things overnight. My rational conscience mind and my emotional well being are divided.

Would you be embarrassed if I told you the apostrophe in "observation's" is incorrect? "Observations" is plural, not possessive.

Good post, though.

No.

Good! I used to be terribly embarrassed when people corrected me. Now it doesn't bother me much. Progress!

Reading over your post again, I can relate to the points in your list. When I was younger I would do or say something that caused a reaction in someone else, then I'd react by being embarrassed, and it would spiral down from there until I went to hide somewhere by myself. Very silly, I suppose.
