I watch people from a distance.

I can't really say why I do this. It's not like I'm performing some sociological experiment with all it's fixed factors and variables to see how people react to different situations. I just watch them.

I see how they treat other people. How they're rude. Sometimes to your face, sometimes only when your back is turned. How some of them seem truly nice. Only saying nice things. All the nice things come out, but what's really inside?

And I see what people look like. I don't really pick up on trends or brands. I've never really cared much for that crap... but I always wonder why people dress the way they do. Even the people that look like they don't give a shit how they look. Despite their appearance, why that style? What makes people make the choices they make? Not only materialistic choices, but the ones of substance as well.

I see these things, and so much more. As I watch these people I have thousands of tiny thoughts. The whys and what-ifs. They usually go unanswered.

The girl with the lack of expression actually has valid ideas and thoughts at times, even if she rarely shares.

I don't simply watch people in public. I watch them here as well. I get to know these people, yet I never talk to them. Reading random diaries... a few always seem to stick out, and I have to check back frequently to see what new developments have occurred. Kinda creepy when you think about it.... I'm in their minds, and they don't know it. But the same may apply for my diary, or even yours.

I do the same thing in chat or with instant messaging programs. I see random names show up. Maybe hear that little door knock or squeak. {I've never bothered changing the wavs for those features.} But I don't say anything... not even a hello. I just watch them sign on then disappear, sometimes hours later. I don't mean to be rude, I just sometimes have no desire to speak/type. Even to people I may talk to daily. I just watch them.

I watch them and I wonder to myself... what's it like in their world.... and away from mine.
