I am very aware in that moment, however, that I am posing as a normal person, that my conversation partner does not realize what is inside and what has been my past. So while I enjoy such moments, I am also on high alert. This is with more important and repeat conversation partners, I CAN enjoy a completely casual conversation with a stranger as if I were normal and kind, without feeling on high alert.
Sorry if this takes the thread astray a bit.
