Remarkable performance at face value. The metaphoric layer is interesting too. How much do we hear, or see, through each others' walls? Or feel trapped behind our own...
As I was walking up to McD's for a snack, after getting off my scooter, a lady came walking out the door. Passing by, and with no particular emphasis, or even looking at me, she said "You must be hungry." Um... ok. Yet the next couple of hours of my out-and-about had one of those lovely shimmers. People were exceptionally friendly and warm. Gracious. I guess I was hungry.
