Do Invisible People Exist?

Do Invisible People Exist? Yes they exist, because we create them. We make people invisible when they speak to us and we don’t answer them, we speak to them without looking at them, we act around them without noticing them, we don’t care about their feelings, we make decisions that affect them without consulting them, we make plans and don’t include them, they try to connect with us but don’t succeed, we make them feel that we attend to much more important matters than they are, and our power over them is such that they don’t dare to complain to us. We usually do this with children and the elders, with employees or subordinates or other people, that because of their position or their situation in life, they can not demand anything from us or have anything to contribute to our important race for money, power, fame and success. This effect is not instantaneous, but occurs over time, by the way we manage our relationship with them. We corner and separate them, and diminish them, until they become invisible and disappear, not physically, but emotionally. We create people to become invisible people, who are very important to us, like our children, parents, grandparents, family members, neighbors, employees and sometimes unfortunately, our spouse. They deserve our love. We should not ignore them or reject them. Don’t forget that Jesus commanded us to love our neighbor as ourselves and treat our neighbor as we want to be treated ourselves. If you don’t want to be invisible to others, don’t make anybody invisible to you.
