Why Do I Feel Insecure?

The question I pose in the title of this entry surely has a complex answer.  When I break it down (My hard work has tangible results.  I'm funny.  I'm smart.  I'm not starving.  I'm relatively handsome.), I should feel very secure.  Still, I have this nagging feeling of insecurity.  The insecurity originates from a perception of people I haD several years ago.  I used to perceive someone who uses a wheelchair as weak, crippled, and deserving of pity.  I'm actually strong and deserving of praise.  I can't portray my inner-strength to everyone is the only problem.  I'd like to think, "Why do I care about people who can't see passed my wheelchair?"  If I think this way, I'd be negating the person I used to be.  The question then becomes, "Why can't I negate the old Matt?"  He was immature, shallow, superficial, and an incomplete person.  Now, I'm the new Matt (mature, deep, insightful, and a complete person), and I'm ready to beat some ass.

I'm an idiot savant. No wait...take out the savant part. JK - I don't really think I'm an idiot - far from it. I just think that's a funny thing to say.

Weekly Reincarnate

The layout of our weeks has a circular structure.  This concept is obvious, but people don't think of our weeks as circular. People always classify Sunday as a "weekend" day.  Doesn't Sunday technically begin the week?  Thinking in this way, we can consider Sunday to be a week-beginning day.  On Thursday, I can't wait for the week-beginning.
