When i leave my building with my daughter or someone younger and "more attractive", the security jumps all over me with kindness and courtesy When i am by myself--they hardly notice. More and more now, i notice my invisibility to people in service. Is it because i am rude or unkind to them---i certainly don't think i am and i have given this subject the time and energy of thought.
Not only the people in service but the general public see me as invisible. Could it be i am overly sensitive on this subject. Maybe. I think not.
When one slows down, looses looks, and maybe some grace, the general public sees us as not as able to participate in the games of life and existence. I am the invisible women of a certain age.
