~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Are You Listening or Staring? ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

When I become conscious of something that I don’t need to be, oh what a mess I make of it…..much like when talking to someone and then I become aware that I am only looking at one of their eyes.  Then I begin to think and start asking myself all kinds of questions.  Well, which eye should I focus on?  The right one or the left one?  Or do I switch back and forth?  Uh oh, now that I am so aware of focusing on their eyes, I feel like I am staring, or not paying enough attention.  Do they know what I am going through and how hard this is for me?  Maybe I should look away for a minute as if I am thinking about what they are saying. How on earth do we do all of this without thinking?  Help!!!
