I understand completely. I am alone and do not seem to make friends though I am not difficult, but too well read for many and not interested in gossip or the usual chatterings. No patience for fools, I suppose, I like sardonic, smart humour and words, walks and brain power. But I also look a bit strange due to surgery years ago that left my face slightly unpleasant and just a bit offbalance. People can't get past an aberration, and either embrace it or repel it.

So true. All too often, the world can be cold and cruel. We wonder what God was thinking about. But sometimes we experience a warm blast of kindness and faith is rekindled. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ke38iO2G2D0 "Life is hard, but God is Good"

If you live in or near Ventura, perhaps we could walk and talk. Jim

Reading does set one apart. Our library has book discussions, but always in the evening & I don't want to go out then. Tell me your favorite authors &/or books.
Do you also listen to books?
