Unseen

Does it bother you when you are ignored, feeling unseen by the world around you?  We tend to become discontented when we feel or are unseen, if we are focused too much on the exterior, the transient, the outside illusory of fantasy and fiction.   If so, we might tend to work harder on self-assertion, as in “Hey, look at me!”  We try harder to please, to be needed, to be significant.  Or we just escape into the self-observation of fantasy where we are truly important and central.  All of this misses the interior journey into the obscurity of the One who is hidden.   I am beginning to welcome hiddenness and obscurity.  It is where I discover my truer self.
