It's NOT you; it's society.

Since I stopped working just over five years ago and only use my scooter to get around, I notice how rushed and how out-of-touch everyone is.

They're walking down the street with a beautiful little child and they're talking on the cell phone. They don't even notice that their kid just learned how to wave

They don't see the hawks flying overhead. They don't stop to watch the birds that for some reason always congregate by the hundreds in one small vine near the railroad station.

They don't see US. They don't see ANYONE.

I'm just like you. I haven't had a hug in AGES. The only time I would get a hug was once a month when I saw my son in prison. Now, they've moved him to a prison that I can't get to -- I won't see him for 18 months

If it weren't for my Casey-Cat (who loves to hug), I'd be really skin starved.

Hugs for the room:

PS: Oh, those aren't "failures" -- they're just "ways that haven't worked". We all have TONS of those.
