People are assholes, Mouse. You already know that.” He paused as he scooped some of my hair back, gently tossing the strands over my shoulder. “And there’s nothing to be embarrassed about.” I glanced over at him.

About This Quote

It is embarrassing to be laughed at by people. Sometimes we cannot stop laughing because we just want someone to laugh or smile before us. When we laugh or smile, we feel like we do not need anyone else and we can make them laugh and smile. However, sometimes it is because our actions and words make someone else feel uncomfortable or ashamed of themselves.

Someone can make us feel embarrassed or ashamed by telling other people the things we say. If we do not stop other people from saying those things, they will continue to do it. Therefore, if you always treat other people as someone who makes you feel embarrassed and ashamed, you will always feel embarrassed and ashamed.
