Once when I was little, I got in a lot of trouble at school and a letter was sent home to my parents. I was so embarrassed by what I had done, that I forged their signature and did not tell them of my shame.

Everyone becomes embarrassed at some point in their life. Being embarrassed matters to us because we would like to put up the facade of us being impenetrable and flawless. This of course is impossible, because we are human and humans are not perfect. Yet, this thought is appealing and sought after by many. This is why it matters.
