Grief
Memoirs of a "disappearing man"-dj eckert
How do you become invisible you ask ?.
How do you get to where everyone you encounter either sees right past you or right through you?
Well, I think I stumbled into the magical recipe
Basic ingredients:
#1)
Dont be a pretty person- after all who wants to look at or notice something not pretty if they dont have to.
#2)
Always always always put others first- in other words, give up your OWN will , it makes you MUCH more covert
#3 )
Don't be an ass kisser- you are SURE to be noticed
#4)
Refuse to become proficient at tooting your own horn- but become painfully aware that you are the only one who WOULD (if you could)
#5)
Don't have a skill or talent, or at least not one that anyone would appreciate, notice or want to pay for. (don't have anything noticeable to offer)
#6)
don't be selfish or a narcissist, again this is a SURE- fire way to draw attention to oneself
#7)
Don't be motivated by earthly things (this eliminates the remaining 90 percent of the ways of being regarded)
Its funny how many of these ingredients are considered "good Christian virtues". ~
NOW swirl these 7 ingredients up together in an earthly human vessel and soon, you will acchieve the desired sensation of people looking right through you...it's magic
It's like you're not even there !
Now, as you keep living
( I mean swirling), you will notice after several years of swirling , those ingeredients will become stiffer and more pronounced, swirl a little bit more until you get that reliable consistency and you'll start noticing that your hands that you once were able to move with some consequence become less and less effective....now continue swirling.... till those hands get to a point that they are totally immobilized by futility.
Ah....there !... you are....
Pretty much totally invisible (or at least incosequential) ,or maybe...
maybe throw in one final ingredient : that of a melancholy disposition ,and you might even discover that you aren't just invisible but maybe even DEAD ; you just haven't figured it out yet.
