I really envy those who are so uninhibited. Unfortunately I can't count myself among their number but I watch with fascination their behaviour and actions.
Just one error: 'tuille' should be 'tulle'.
Kind regards. Judy

Thanks for the catch, you wonderful, eagle-eye reviewer! And thanks for the nice review, as well. xo
Comment from Phyllis Stewart
Superb commentary on inhibitions parents and adults put into children, masking their normal enjoyment of trying new things in new ways, which is the essence of invention. If we want new technology, we should not discourage the creative spirit in our population. We need an awareness movement to alert people to this potential problem. I suggest you start it, and I'll join in. :)

I couldn't agree more, Phyllis. Thanks for this great review. I enjoyed it and appreciated it very much. xo
Comment from Dolly'sPoems
I enjoyed your words Rachelle and how wonderful to be so uninhibited. Here I see people on the beach stood alone, practicing yoga moves or tai chi, it is fascinating to watch. I have stretched out on a plane in the isles so that I don't get thrombosis! Being uninhibited is freeing and your lady traffic guard is looking after her health and the onlookers should be taking a leaf out of her book! Your words are much enjoyed, an insight into your world, love Dolly x

Comment from susand3022
Hi Rachelle, I truly expect that this is so... I, however, am not one of these people. I sometimes dream of being one of these people and one would think that in a place like this it would be easy to say... "Who gives a crap what these people think of me... I'm going to be me here! It's not as if anyone here even knows me!" I can't even do that! I still have to wear most of the same mask I wear every day in my real life. The only difference is here, I'll tell people I'm not comfortable enough to let my hair down, as it were. In real life... they get what's presented.

I guess we all live within the confines of our own manageable tortures.
Anyway, thank you, Susan, for this understanding and supportive review. xo
Comment from Gloria ....
Well Rachelle, I can see you've put lots of thought into this observation piece, and yes the uninhibited do manage to draw attention and hypotheses. It might be a bit of a problem if everyone did so, but then again, maybe not.
A most enjoyable read. :)

Haha - you're right, Gloria! Then it might be a world of pure chaos...although, it does seem kind of like a world of chaos now...
I always appreciate your warm and wonderful feedback.

Thank you Rachelle. :)
Comment from Sandra Elizabeth Williams
Funny you should write about this, Rachelle, when I am about to post a write in which I am uninhibited and I say so.
Sometimes it is the best way to be. It is total freedom.
It is true though there are some who will want to stamp some kind of label... Old and don't care anymore... Deranged, just as you've written, but there is more to it.
Thanks for this share.
