observing from the porch

as a child, i would constantly watch people. i was fascinated by their movements, actions, and words. i learned that i had this "gift" of reading people by the way they reacted to certain situations, talked to others, and ultimately, their body language.

to this day, i still cannot resist watching other people and knowing what's going on. i am the person that could tell you what's going on with any neighbor. i spent many evenings sipping wine, chatting on the phone, just to watch the happenings of my environment.

people sometimes wonder why i'm so quiet. it's not because i'm shy, it's because i'm trying to figure who you are and what makes you tick. i'm observing the situation.

so here i begin my blog - hoping to share things i observe with all who read and take interest.
