Personal Rambling: Use the Fancy Soap

Did you get something special for Christmas this year?

Some fancy soap? A special bottle of wine? Cozy socks that you don’t want to wear because they’ll get dirty? An expensive perfume you feel like you can’t wear on a daily basis?

Someone says something that revives one of your biggest insecurities. And when you finally get the chance to talk about it someone says ‘well, it could be worse.’
