Invisible woman

by: pookie2001in

It is a sad state that this world is in. People don't see each other anymore, not really. Have you ever noticed that? If you are out and you attempt to make eye contact, the person will simply ignore your efforts. Is it because they are so self- absorbed that they have no time for thoughts of anything other than themselves? Every once in a awhile, you will get a person to respond.

I have even walked by people, looked them straight in the eye, said "excuse me ladies"' and had them completely ignore me!! I don't understand it!

I challenge you to make eye contact with people the next time you are out. See how many respond to excuse me. It could be just where I live. I would be interested to see how people in different places react to the same thing.

I feel that they deserve that respect from me. If I see them looking at me, I smile. That normally gets a response of \'hello, how are you?\' and then of course I respond. Try to smile and be happy cause you never know that could make or break someone\'s day. =]



    [ Im a counselor, it\'s in my nature, i guess. body language is everything in my world. ]



    Glad you made it known!
