Unreadable

I've just been told (again) that folks have a hard time gauging where I'm at emotionally.

A few years ago, this would have been a compliment.  Now... it's an annoyance.

Someone brought up the point though, that it most likely goes back to the home, and what folks were like as I was growing up.  For sure, stoicism above all else.  Emotion was (and still is) viewed as a weakness in my family, and there was no space for weakness.

It's interesting that as I take back my sensitivity, some folks are still having a hard time reading me.  Mmm...  Maybe it's because I'm super attentive to body language and energies, that I can read the people I care about fairly easy.

Keep up, eh?
