action right action noticing

Suddenly, I felt so helpless. If I hated the crowds but also my own company, where did that leave me?

—Sarah Dessen in Saint Anything

I was used to being invisible. People rarely saw me, and if they did, they never looked close. I wasn't shiny and charming like my brother, stunning and graceful like my mother, or smart and dynamic like my friends. That's the thing, though. You always think you want to be noticed. Until you are.
