When you realize you are, in fact, short

Well I've seen it go one of either way..
You can either let it plague you in your thoughts and your worries and concerns all your life which I don't recommend or like some know it embrace it and use it to your advantage...
I'm on the taller side not really tall but anybody who ever says I wish I was taller like you I said yeah until you hit your head on that corner of a cupboard.... OUCH!!!..
There's advantages on a lot of days but some days not so much....
There have been a few times early on I'm my marriage I have given the wife an ultimatum "either you start closing those cupboard, or I'm taking every single one of em off"

Didn't bother her none if they were open, she'd just walk right under those doors, but I'd knock my head on em every single time
