Do the opposite and get over it...
Wednesday, July 16, 2008 at 11:49AM Doing the laser eye surgery thing has been an 'eye opener' (couldn't resist the pun) on a couple of levels... I'm surprised at how quickly I'm getting used to seeing well all the time.
On another level I've had to live a week without eyemakeup- to some I appreciate, not a big deal, but to me it is/was. Eyes are my thing and I always play them up with lashings of black eyeliner and mascara. For the last week I've had no choice but to let the world see me with no eye make up on and still act 'as if' I feel like my normal self even though that extra smidgen of confidence that comes with feeling like I look good wasn't there. And you know what... after a week I learned to like the way I look without eyemakeup and still be myself, in fact it's been a break through in the fact that it dosen't matter who see's me with or without eye makeup now, I feel me and pretty either way. So by doing the opposite, I've gotten over it.
I guess it's feel the fear and do it anyway... tomorrow when I'm allowed to wear eye makeup again, I'll probably be wearing a little less...
On a different note, here's a nice little quote from an episode of Scrubs called 'My Last Chance':
"...the easiest way to lose something is to want it too badly..."
