Traumwind - makes us feel superior

... today on the train I saw a man. He was absolutely nuts as you say. Talking to himself as if there was somebody else. Totaly serious, normal conversation, only there was just him. And now and then he'd start laughing heartily about a joke he had made. T'would have been a perfectly normal, friendly and cheerful conversation... missing one person. Seeing him talking to himself, my first reaction was that of superiority. I don't behave like that... But then, I looked like he was perfectly happy, having a really good time! And me?
