Singing with your eyes closed

I read this article about rejection in "Self" as I was blow-drying my hair this morning. B/c my hair is so thick, I get bored, so I read. Just turn my head upside down and let the dryer do it's magic. Okay, back to topic at hand. Basically, it talked about how fear of rejection can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. I have heard this before from numerous friends, to which my reply has always "bullsh*t". Maybe I've been wrong all this time. I mean, if "Self" says it's so, then it must be so. If anything, I shouldn't be putting such negative thoughts out into the universe. But then, what would I talk about? I've decided to conquer these issues with a new mantra...or maybe a theme song. Something power ballad-ish. Nothing pumps me up more than a little song called "Open Arms." Thanks Journey for making singing with your eyes closed a little bit cooler.
