I saw a puzzled look in their eyes. A slight moment of puzzlement fleeted through their minds.
It started with a simple remark to two almost-strangers. "Maybe, I'll come on Christmas to say Merry Christmas." I realized where their emotions were going and followed up; "I always run from people, its a tradition I should change."
Understanding replaced the puzzlement.
This was the pivotal moment in my mind. I have to stop hiding.I have to do it now.
Once, before I turned 13, my mother remarked that she saw a surprising change in me. Her once outgoing, friendly little boy now ran away from people, even his friends. If only she could understand.
The truth is that after the incident With Ronel's hurt flooding my mind I avoided people. Unaware of the new reflex I started hiding. Hiding from people and hiding me. Unable to understand what is happening and unable to process the path my life were taking.
For the longest Time I thought God broke me when He made me.
Now, years later, understanding my gift and able to process what is happening I suddenly had the courage to approach people. Learning how to separate what I feel from what I experience, gave me the courage to be a normal person.
That one moment were the trigger. After years of wishing to be a normal person, it came into my grasp.
