The Invisible Space Bubble
We were in McDonald's earlier. The place was packed. While Erbe was waiting for his turn to order, I looked for vacant seats. One table was empty except for this small white plastic bag daintily perched on the table. Nobody was there. It was ironic but the whole setup screamed, "I HAVE THIS FREAKING SEAT! STAY AWAY!"
Have you noticed that we automatically respond to things like that? I could have just removed the damn plastic since its owner doesn't own the table and the seats, but the little plastic demanded respect of space. Weird.
Right there and then, I was reminded of Bimbo's entry. He referred to it as the Invisible Space Bubble. He was pretty insightful. It's a damn good read. Maybe, you should check it out.
