Do you remember the feeling you had as a teenager and suffering low self esteem that it didn't matter what you did or didn't do because no-one noticed anyway? You didn't make an effort to see people or contact them or attend events because you didn't feel you counted. You felt invisible and believed everyone else thought you were invisible too.
Teenagers get forgiven for being selfish. Adults more or less expect it of them as they start to find out who they are. But if adults persist in this 'I'm invisible so no-one notices if I do nothing' behaviour it's not so clever.
WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE!! This is your life. Get out there and grab it and be the person you want to be. Newsflash! You are not invisible. People care about you and want you to join in!!
Sorry about the rant. Not sure where that came from but I hope some of you reading this can identify with it in some way!
