Where do you wear your feelings?

Sound like a funny question huh?  Unless someone asked you if that maybe the reason your feelings keep getting hurt...OUCH...so, I've had to do some thinking, and maybe that's the case, or maybe it's because I over analyze everything!!!! 

Have you ever been in a room full of people and felt totally alone?  That's really what I've been dealing with lately.  As stupid as it sounds, I've wished for friendships like high school, when you had no other life, school and friends, that was it. I know very well how easy life gets in the way, so I shouldn't  be so sensitive, I'm as busy as the next guy!  We have all grown up, we have jobs, families, church, home, commitments!  What I think amazes me is how something so simple can make you feel better. For instance, a lunch date with an old friend, or a caring word from someone that says, you are special, you are important, you mean something to me.  Because isn't that what we all want to hear, that we truly mean something to someone other than our spouse or kids? 

Another problem may be my personality, I am a doer.  I show my love by doing acts of service.  But, not everyone is like that, not everyone needs validation! 
So, today, this post is for me, to get over my short comings, stop wallowing in self pity and grow up! 

Take the time this week to tell someone how much they mean to you, you never know what kind of day they've had!
Oh, and one more thing, thank you, for being my friend!
