Have you ever felt invisible?
Are you ever talking and no
one appears to be listening?
Do you saunter/roll into a
room and no one looks your way?
While in a department store
do sales people ignore you?
Have you ever received a
fortune cookie without a fortune in it?
If you can answer yes to any
or all of these questions as I can, than you too don’t need the Harry Potter
Cloak!
Only if these anti-attributes
came with super or magic powers than that would make it all fine, but somehow
it’s not...
Oddly enough, I have been on
the other end of all that too, an extreme other side; funny how things change…
I am not only one to complain
here, but I am definitely one for solutions too…sort of...
Being invisible can have its
rewards, you might, just maybe be able to get away with ridiculous behaviors…
Try acting out like a child,
having an adult tantrum? That is sure to turn heads in public places or not,
fun either way, or not.
Tune out others, as they have
you? That’ll teach them two can play at that game too, and in the long run it
may prove to be rather entertaining when they don’t notice, but you wouldn’t
have either so you are even.
Physically grab, not too
hard, the arm of a sales clerk and make them listen to your desire to be helped
now? Make that gently touch their elbow; who needs security involved in your
need to find the right size! Heck, they wouldn’t notice and think if anything
that a flying insect touched them. Then go right up to them and block their way
as they plow right through you while they never realize that you have a
question that could earn them a few bucks, hmm? That’s why they’re there, right,
too bad?
Write your own fortune with
lotsa fun and happiness and good fortune included all coming your way?
And let your significant
other know that you have a lot of stuff coming both your ways to share!
This will work…
Since Hubby wanted to share
his only one fortune with me, and are you ready, than here it is… “A kiss? The renunciation of the heart when
one is no longer alone”
That says it all… I’M HERE AND NOTICED; ALL IT TAKES IS TO
PUCKER UP, HOORAY!
As simple as that sounds,
sometimes a kiss is just a kiss…but not always… so try!
And that is just it, until we
try in life to be heard, be it our true voices, or our presence, or our
tenderness, one never knows does one?
Being visible can have its
rewards and is highly recommended by all who profess to embrace the concept,
figuratively and literally. I was jesting with you or not. Many days I do feel
invisible and a few of the above mentioned incidents have actually happened to me in these recent years,
including the no-fortune one, tonight!
Scary about the implications
of that. Could it mean no future?
What a sad, negative thing to say to surmise my essay,
shame on me!
Any-who, on all those suppositions
of mine, allow me, on this second day of summer, oops forgot to tell you all in
this hemisphere a to have a very lovely summer yesterday, an oversight, not ignoring you, and so let's be the first to wish you a very happy good night and ask you to
kindly count all of your blessings and share all those overages with you know who
and we will too!
And next time please be here
or be square, ya hear?!
