A small for his age shy super sensitive to words spoken little boy unsure of everything.
Me.
That describes my life as a kid.
I think every unkind mean spirited word ever spoken to me is stored in my memory for easy recall.
Why are they saying these things I wondered.
Am I that bad?
During this Christmas season I remember one 55 years or so ago.Grownups who had boys my age told me that Santa wasn't coming to see me because I didn't get a letter from Santa like their boys.
Over the years I've wondered what was the purpose in saying that to a little kid.
If they wanted to hurt me they succeeded.
The memory of that still stings.
