Minds, Thoughts, Emotions

So,
Ever wish you could read people's minds? Or maybe just one important person's. You would know who to trust or whether the person you liked liked you back or how to please someone or understand how the mind's of other people work or whether you're really the only one in the universe who thought of things in that way or just to KNOW how other people saw you. Or if they saw you at all. Perhaps knowing how people felt would be enough. You can tell a lot from emotions.
And sometimes, just sometimes, I would wish that others could read my mind as well. Most of the time, that's no where near true. I really don't think I'd be liked if some of my thoughts were read. But still, it would mean no more secrets. And others would, well, fully understand. Everything is just placed out to be seen. There would be nothing left to hide. Again, you would know exactly who you could trust. And now, you tell me that it's possible. All I have to do is open my mouth, and 'Say what I need to say' (song). Easier said that done. Believe me, it's hard. I wouldn't know where to start, or how people would react. I'd just be. Stuck.
But then, I really should be thankful. Grateful. For an awesome family (most of the time) and great, supportive friends. But hey, I can dream can't I?
Wishful and wondering
Erica

ich bin bored by you.
Have you ever watched Bruce Almighty? It stars Jim Carey and is one of the greatest films ever made - well, at least in my eyes! Go watch it if you haven't, it corresponds to your post.
