When out somewhere walking
or in the mall or store shopping
or maybe in a restaurant
have you happened to glance
across the room and met into eyes
with someone........

Within those eyes you seem
to see something
something that bothers you
Some troubled soul deep inside
seeming to be yearning
for someone   ~anyone~
to help release the pain......

You have trouble pulling your eyes away from theirs

You see desperation in the eyes of
and you find yourself
thinking of those eyes
long after you see them no more
....wondering what the story is

You think of different scenarios
scenes of what could have happened
in the life of that one
You wonder what those eyes have seen
what could possibly have caused
the desperation within
the eyes..........

Have you ever wondered.........

Yes Ethel..I know exactly what you mean
and have had it happen.
Wow..seems you and I were in the same mall. LOL.
Hugs!

   but to be told I am loved ~

LOL Nancy, are you aren't my long lost twin

(big angel hugs) Oh Ethel, I do notice this ever so often and it saddens me seeing children sad and I wish I could go to them all and give them a hug and make them smile! (sigh) I have taught Hispanic children before and I was so blessed it brought me to tears of joy when I helped cheer up a boy named Alejandro and then he smiled saying "Adios, amigo!" (smiles) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Dear Ethel, this is a beautiful reflective write. Yes, this happens and sometimes there is an opportunity for a smile, for a word, sometimes I can silently say a prayer.
Thank you for sharing this.
Love and hugs. Margherita
