I love to people watch. I can just sit and watch people for a great length of time. Sometimes as I watch I come up with stories, “they must be on their first date, look how attentive he is to her” or “she is such a great mom, look how she patiently explained xyz.” I love watching people because I understand and recognize, everyone has a story.
