So, what's my future going to look like?

Dear reader,
J.D. Salinger told his editors: "Don't!"
He is totally right. Why change the story? This is the way I have experienced it all. Now, you may not like my writing, however, by editing it, i.e. changing it, it will inevitably become someone else's interpretation and that's NOT what I intended. So DON'T!

I checked my e-mail at my favorite coffee house "Mugs"- I do that regularly, and found a "Thank you!"-note from my Dutch friends living somewhere in the center of France. I replied expressing my state of being. They were apparently quite moved that they decided to call via "FaceTime" and pointed out that maybe, just maybe I should do more of the writing they had just experienced - Good stuff, really worth while reading. "Stop searching! Do more Writing! Not for anyone or a particular publication. Just do it! We think you have a distinct talent!"

I am still at Mugs with lots of laps with laptops, paper coffee cups, people conferring around rectangular tables. I see and hear things differently than others do. I see red running shoes, knees,
absent minded stares, two hands embracing the cappuccino. The TV high up near the ceiling shows people running their mouths inaudibly. It is a cozy place with lots of chatter and islands of silence around an oval table with comfortable arm chairs where study and reading are the main occupation.
I observe a string of women who have truly studied their outfits at home, trying to look relaxed and sexy. High heels with knee reaching boots and I can't see their tops through the waist long blond colored hair. They want to belong ... well, that's what I think.

It's Sunday and everyone wanders or is focused or anything in between. It's time for me to leave and start cooking for my evening gathering. So, Cha-Cha for now!
