Mind Reading

Dear Friend,

If I could have any power at all, I would have the power to read minds. I sometimes really wish that I could understand better how people think and what's on their minds. I've come to realize that I tend to think differently then other people. I know it as I see it in the puzzled looks in peoples' eyes when I talk. Or when I hear someone answer a question in a completely different way then I do.

Perhaps I am too honest and too direct.

In addition to just knowing how other people think. I really wish I knew what other people think of me. I'm writting to you, stranger, in an attempt to disengage myslef from that. You will never meet me, and I can live in the comfort of not caring what you think, but there are others in my life and over time who I really wish I could understand what they thought of me. I know, we shouldn't need others to validate our existence, and yeah, its not about that. Maybe... but really I would like to know. I have never been able to read people, and I'd like to know what they think of me, not to validate, but just to know... ya know?

Regards
-Angst
