So many people just don’t get it. Those rare few who do get it are a treasure. If you find one, count yourself lucky and hold on to him/her for dear life.
I’ve found that most people simply “broadcast” all of the time. They talk without ever listening, or even asking. I’ve been told that I’m a hard person to get to know. Honestly, that’s not the case. It just takes time and effort, two things many people aren’t willing to give. I can do surface level stuff for only so long, and then I move on. Life is just too short. Life is also precious and full of wonder. I feel things too deeply to live any other way. I once read that it’s a blessing and a curse to feel everything so very deeply. I can’t agree more.
That’s all I’ve got for now. I’m tired because I haven’t been sleeping well the past several nights. I’ve been having bad dreams, which is very rare for me. I woke up in the middle of the night last night, scared. Every noise was someone trying to break in. (For the record, I live in a very safe place. Besides, my neighbors are much richer– my next door neighbor drives a $170,000 Maserati, so who would want to rob me?) I can’t think of the last time I was scared to be alone, but I was last night. Not a good feeling. Most likely just stuff in my psyche that has to work itself out. This too shall pass. 🙂

I bet it wouldn’t be hard to find a volunteer to keep you company at night. 😉 You must have to fight them off with a stick! Beauty and brains, my chica. <3
