Woman
A woman noticed something strange
at every family gathering.
If she arrived early, nobody cared.
If she stayed late, nobody noticed.
But the one year she didn't come at all...
everyone suddenly had questions.
"Why are you so distant?"
"Why don't you call anymore?"
"Why have you changed?"
She wanted to laugh. Because nobody
had noticed her loneliness when she
was sitting right beside them.
They only noticed her absence.
The Quiet Truth: Sometimes people
don't miss you. They miss access to you.
And there comes a point when
protecting your peace becomes more
important than proving your love to
people who never bothered to see it.
