Feeling Silly

I hate feeling silly when I try new things and they just don't work out.

Like when you try to wear a different style shoe that you thought looked great with your favorite jeans, and you just feel uncomfortable all day.

Or you try a new hairstyle, just to mix it up, and it gets either completely ignored, or you get asked "what happened to your hair?"

Or you try being nice to someone, and they ask what's wrong with you.

Or you try a new recipe for your family, spend a whole bunch of time testing and thinking and preparing, and it doesn't come out right. And then your mom kindly says "Its just missing something" as she grimaces with the first bite.

Or the time you work on your hand writing, and then people say they can't read it.

Or that new program for organization just doesn't work out. Or a better one exists.

Or you tried something new, and people just rejected it.

I understand that you will never know unless you try...but it sure does feel uncomfortable...and I cry when I get embarrassed. Which is even more embarrassing.

Anybody feel the same?
