Endless Thoughts;

invisible

Do you ever get that feeling that you go completely unnoticed? People are aware that you are there, but seem to pay no attention to anything after that fact. Such as if you talk, you aren't heard, or if you do something, it goes unseen. The only thing people realize is you are actually in the room, and sometimes you're lucky if even that.

It wasn’t that long about, where we used to dress up as superheroes, and pretend our superpowers were the ability to be unseen; invisible. Yet now, that isn’t what we want, well at least for most. Some would want nothing more than to just disappear, but I cannot think the opposite. As much fun as it was to play invisible, being seen gives you so much more.

I went for my first day at Safeway on Tues., the problem was that they had no record of me being hired, nor me coming in for orientation. I was sent home and instructed to call in the next day for the manager, then on Wed., I called in, and the manager wasn't even there. Gives you that feeling that no one notices you, and you have no ability to leave a mental imprint on people. I know the Safeway thing was because of my brother, who had left a message about me coming in, and them not getting it, but still, the impression my brother told them about me, and them knowing at least that I existed didn't last very long.

I know that I'm real, and I do exist, I don't need to be told that I am for sure here. What I mean is, we all get those times where we feel like no one sees us, or at least we aren't acknowledge, as if we have no importance, and really, that is the worst feeling. So to those out there, who feel like that, I know what you mean, and hopefully it won’t last long, because being invisible sucks.
