past pains can be so real in the present.....it's hard to see what we really have become....we short ourselves.everyday.because of the haunting past...IF WE COULD ONLY SEE HOW OTHERS SEE US NOW>>>>THROUGH THEIR EYES we could see we are alright...much better that we think

This is very moving David - and true too, I have not doubt. So sad to have been one of the kids that weren't picked for the team, or invited to share sandwiches with. Ironically, the 'popular' kids are often the saddest, with troubles they hide under their bullying. Your childhood sounds awful though. I wonder what changed things for you? You must write a sequel to this one. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
