An insensitive comment and how it SHOULD NOT bother me

We all have bad days now and then.

I had one yesterday when someone very insensitively commented on how much weight I've put on (I have my reasons) and why I should watch what I ate.

I rationally know that I should not let what others say affect me. I am after all a MATURE person of a certain age, AND should know better. But it still hurts when someone close makes such a comment - its like poking a finger into an already raw and bloody wound.

Gee, thanks.

So here's a pout on my behalf.
