Observation

Human beings are unique. They are interesting to observe. Observing is a hobby of mine. It's very useful too. I do it all the time. Looking in on situations and speculating the whole circumstance, it's like a wonderful little puzzle. And then you know something about one person or another or an event. Even if it doesn't have to do with you, it's nice to know. Human beings are unique. There are somethings that are predictable though. Some things you assume to irritate, or excite the person you are observing. But watch, when someone says something, or does something - watch the body language, the eyes. It's very interesting! Is the person under stress? Unsure? The flicker of eyes as they are observing too. Watch them, and then you get the immediate reaction as they take in the situation. From there, all sorts of theories can be made up, or planning, preparation...
Of course, one is never completely right. Human beings are unique. They can change instantly, faster than even they can see. In that case, you are in for the worst of luck, or the best. You'd better prepare for that too. Why, isn't it useful to know that in about the space of a month or two 'Sally' will be heartbroken and 'Polly' will be in heaven and you will be caught between the two - all because of 'bob'? I find that a bit useful, even if the wizardress of dreams doesn't. It's all in the body language, all in the eyes. Horrifying at times. Breaks my heart as well and this time I am thanking the stars I was wrong. At least, I'm pretty sure I'm wrong. Human beings are unique.
By the way, I am NOT a stalker.
