Karl
Karl nervously approached the woman sitting on the park bench, " Hi, I hope I am not offending you, but I have seen you sitting here each Sunday when I come to the park and I couldn't help but notice how sad and lonely you look".
The woman looked up, drawn from her thoughts, in front of her stood a man, about forty years old, his face while not classically handsome, was interesting and his look of concern appeared genuine. It was evident that he had been exercising, using the park training apparatus and running track, as perspiration had made his white tee shirt damp around the neck and his high cut, blue, training shorts had darkened around his crotch. She judged him to be about six feet tall and his muscular body was evidence of his exercise regime. For no definable reason she felt that she could trust this person. "Thank you for your concern, you are very observant, I come here trying to return to happier times but I am afraid depression takes over all too frequently".
Karl spoke softly' "I've had a relationship breakdown myself, it is the reason I first came here to exercise and drive the demons away. I know the importance of talking to someone and releasing all those pent up negative feelings. Would you like to walk over to the kiosk and get a coffee and we can talk, you don't have tell all your most intimate secrets unless you want to, but just talking in broad terms can help."
