Walking Into a Crowded Room

Some people can feel alone, in a crowded room. I feel this way in a big family gathering.

I agree with you, Darlene. There were times when I felt like a lost sheep, though I somehow always manage to find someone to talk to. Regards // paul

Hello Paul, When sitting in a restaurant with the family gathered together at a big table, and some members do not show up, I end up facing an empty chair,with no one to talk to. It happens all the time. have a nice day my friend.

I agree totally w/Maureen. Sharp wit etched by your pen. A profound observation. I'm from a big family and I feel the opposite. Difference in people, varied sensitivities, I suppose. Excellent write though. Love and smiles forever.

Hello Freddie, Yes there is a difference in people in my family that are sensitive and super sensitive people in my family. They are the ones you have to walk on egg shells. I am not sensitive. Have a nice day my friend.
