What I mean by that is being able to do things without caring so much about what other people think about it. Unfortunately, some of the decisions I make are based on others' perception of the decision I would make.

I'll give you an example.

When I'm making an unprotected right turn from a red light or pulling out of a driveway and a car pulls up behind me. Instead of going when I feel safe to go, suddenly, I shrink that threshhold because I don't want that guy behind me to get pissed off and honk, maybe get out of his car and share a few words with me. So I sacrifice my own safety and necessity just so I can avoid making the other person pissed off.

I know... totally irrational. But I'm just trying to illustrate truthfully what I mean by being care-free. That's what I mean by I admire people who are care-free. Because to me, they can be in that same driving posision and if that car honks behind them they'll be like "Hey, tough luck. You can just wait right there because I'm not going until I want to go." I really struggle with stuff like that.

Hope that helps to clarify it.
