OK. I can prove it.
Just now half of you were thinking "where the heck is she going with this?"
The other half of you, minus one, were thinking "OK, I really know she is crazy now and why am I coming here anyway?"
And that rebellious one of you that wasn't included in those two categories...well, you know what you were thinking and I cannot share it here because it is too private. Too private and too painful.
See?
I told you I was telepathic!
Yea, I'm cool.
...
Now, I'm wondering...did you get my telepathic message back?
The message telling you why I even wrote this post in the first place?

OK, I'll tell you. It's because this morning when I woke up I was thinking about my sister when she was in the nursing home.
I would sit beside her bed and she would just stare at me.
And I would say, "Liz, you have to tell me what you're thinking...I can't read your mind."
And in the days when she could still talk she would yell at me and tell me to try harder.
"You can," she would shout, "You can! Just try harder!"
And then she would sit there and stare at me and I would get up and turn the TV on and she would yell and say "Pay attention...I just told you that I needed a drink of water."
And then she would stare at me some more and I would get up and get her a snack and she would just beam at me..."See," she would say, "You just had to try harder."
But remembering that made me think about telepathy as a form of communication.
And I was thinking it's not really a great method of telling someone something. Or hearing what they have to say.
Because people don't always know what you're thinking unless you tell them.
And so...if you didn't get the rest of my telephatic message this morning I'll just write it here to be sure you get it.
Do you all know how much I appreciate you? Your sweet comments. Visiting your blogs. You make me laugh. You make me cry. You amaze me each week when I read through the Alphabe-Thursday links.
You are all really neat. And I'm really glad our paths have crossed here in Blogland!
I appreciate you all.
Except for that one person.
And you, one person, I just don't understand what message you're sending me here!
I would write "sigh" before I sign off from this post.
But somehow, I suspect you already knew that I would!
See!?!
Telepathy at it's finest!
