A Note on the Outsiders.

I’ve encountered a small number of very highly aware people during my life. I’m encountering a few now. High awareness can be a curse at times because the generality of others – the great majority – simply don’t understand it. They knock you over in their rush to get to the shopping mall, or home for the latest episode of a soap, or down to the beach with their beer cans and footballs. And then they step carelessly on your head in passing and wonder why you groan.

And so you spend your time consciously avoiding the crowd or pushing back at it, because that’s the only way you can stay upright and live life in your own way. You’re well outnumbered, of course, so it's far from easy at times.
