INVISIBLE WOMAN

November 18, 2010 | 6 comments

I was talking to my friend the other day about the feeling of “being invisible”. When I mentioned to my son I sometimes feel invisible he thought the idea was ridiculous.

Many years ago a fellow artist friend who was twenty years older said that one day I would walk into a room with my daughter, who happens to be gorgeous, and no one would see me. Well…..the day came when I was in my fifties. I felt invisible! Where had I gone? It happened just like she said….darn! I looked at my daughter and smiled but knew I had entered a new phase of my life.

We are a youth oriented generation. Being young has all the perks….or so they say. When women are young they are filled with light, beauty, tight skin and a tight butt. They may be young but guess what hasn’t fallen….yet!

When I was young I never gave this idea of being invisible a millisecond of a thought.

My son reminded me being invisible was a story /feeling I have taken on as mine…….he may be correct yet the story and feeling is real for many women.

Have you ever felt invisible?

Leave a comment as I think it would be educational for us all.
