You don't sense it or feel it. You don't even suspect or are aware of it until it is too late.

BE WEARY OF PROGRAMMED RESPONSES
You are imprinting your self with specific, abnormal behavior that once employed requires FEEDING.

I can give you my full attention without becoming serious. So can you....Let us begin then....Please refer to my picture as I am smiling at you right now...enjoy
