Like the new colors? Personally, I might change back. Am feeling a bit frustrated tonight. I was talking to John earlier and it was a very wierd conversation about how stupid people bother us. By stupid, I mean those who are narrowminded enough to discriminate on the basis of disability. I have been dealing with these things my whole life, but it is a new experience for him as he does not have a disability. I know it is hard for him to deal with the way people sometimes treat me. He gets angry and I understand why, but I have no idea how to help him deal with it.
Since there is no way to avoid these narrowminded people, and I do not want him to be angry every time we leave the house, I am stymied. When I was younger, I ended a relationship for this exact reason, but that is not even on my radar now. I love him more than I ever thought possible, and I know that he loves me. We can talk very openly about anything, I just don't know the right things to say about this.
I don't know if any of you reading this might have ever found a way around this problem, but suggestions are most welcome.
