My favourite quote is 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you'.
Life really is a roller-coaster with it's ups and downs and varying speeds. Yet no matter how hard you try to stay on an even keel, something always comes along to kick you in the teeth and remind you just how fragile life is. We are all trying to live the best we know how and to get along together. So take time to appreciate those around you and tell them how much you love them occasionally. A smile and a kind word speaks volumes.

Well my mom's making me wear my grad dress to this wedding I'm going to but i don't know..i never want to wear my graduation dress ever again or anywhere because somethng embarassing happened and wearing it and seeing it reminds me and haunts me of it.
I can't get a new one because it's wasting money and the weddings is in three days.
I know that there's no way to get out of it but can someone just say something to make the situation better? Im a sucker for sweet talk (link)

If you think of the situation as the bad memory and not the dress, that might help. Also could you add some accessories that will change its look slightly? Try wearing a pashmina over it or another pretty shawl, or add a brooch or some flowers. If you had the skills, could you alter it in some way? Also, if the people who made you embarrassed are not going to the wedding then you don't need to think about them. Best of all hold your head up and smile, because if you act happy you will feel happy. Enjoy the wedding.
