15 Minutes of Shame

I've been thinking... I don't really like the way I am. I guess I should make a change; I guess I should stop being so transparent, I should keep my thoughts for myself only (when it comes to people). Some say I'm not a Selfish at all, but I AM!! My problem is a lack of precious wisdom, that is, I don't seem to know when to stop, when to go away; instead I go deeper and deeper and it is only when I'm all disappointed that selfishness emerges. But you may say that's completely useless because when it happens I see myself exposed, ashamed, and regretful.

The good part of it is that I only go through my 15 minutes of shame and then, you see, I'm perfectly able to go on.

After all, nobody said it was easy to deal with feelings.
