OMG

This baby has what I have!

It's kinda weird, but sometimes I forget about my birthmark, but then again, I don't really. Like, I know it's there, but I don't think about it too much. Only mostly when I'm in public and I catch someone looking at me or I'll be talking with someone and their eyes linger for a second or three. I have a brief moment of "What are they--OH, right." It doesn't really bother me because I know it's not everyday you see someone with a large, dark, mole on their face. I know because I haven't seen anybody in person, or in the media for that matter, with anything like what I have. That being said, I also know that there are ppl out there that do have what I have. However, a lot of ppl cover their birthmarks. I can understand why, but I don't see the point. I mean, eventually, hopefully, you're gonna meet somebody and have an intimate relationship and they're going to see you without the makeup, so why hide it? I don't think ppl should do that, it's a part of who you are and also, it adds to diversity. I'm just a big believer in not changing what doesn't need to be changed. If it isn't a health concern, leave it alone.

Sometimes I wonder how it would be if I didn't have it; it wouldn't be a big whoop, I'd look exactly like my sister. I always sorta thought maybe it is a good thing I have a birthmark, so ppl can tell us apart, but it turns out it's not much help.

It's not like life is bad with it, I just get looked at and occasionally asked about it. When I do get asked, I have the thought of acting like I don't know what they're talking about, but I always forget. When I was younger, little kids would ask me how the time, now it's gotten rare. Sometimes ppl would ask if it hurts and even rarer, if they could touch it.

I do feel a little reluctant to show ppl my pictures over the internet, though. Y'know any picture posted out there for anyone to see is subject to cruelty, but as ugly as I feel sometimes (strangely, that's unrelated to the birthmark), ppl think I'm good-looking. Or at least have the common decency not to tell me I'm a troll.

Anyway, he's an orphan and the foster home he's in has a lot of videos of the other orphans. They're cute, but it's kinda sad because some of them have defects. I know maybe their parents gave them away because they couldn't handle them financially, but it's really heartbreaking to think about. Here are some other videos:






Oh yeah, Ewan McGregor got his mole removed. I thought it was cute. :(
