I wonder...

A lot of times I wonder who he would have been...& then I wonder a little farther & wonder if you ever wonder about it too. I'm pretty sure I'll always wonder because when it comes to him & you...even though it hurts, I still smile.

Pay attention

Sometimes all you want is for somebody to care enough to pay attention.

Being Human

We, as a species, are social creatures.  The social interaction with other humans is a crucial part of our development.  Even after the developmental years, we still need that interaction.

For a person with social anxiety, that needed social interaction is difficult.  We pull away from people due to an illogical fear.  It is a phobia.  We know our fear is unwarranted but that does not make it disappear.

The longer we avoid that social interaction, the harder it is to reach out for it.  The longer we are alone, the harder it is to remember how to not be alone. 

We want to be as human as everybody else, but we don't know how.
