I haven't checked out Livejournal for weeks. I let my paid membership lapse, but I've still got the free account, so on a lark, I came here and yours was the first post I came to.
This has everything about you that made me follow you on here so many years ago. Sometimes, if not most times, what goes on in our heads about ourselves, has no relation to what others see and deal with.
I wish we'd have known each other growing up, then we could have not belonged together, and in that, belong with each other. Whatever problems you may have previously had or thought you have about writing are long gone. This was beautiful, and you are beautiful.
I can relate to your words on so many levels. And I still feel like in many ways I don't belong. I've been learning sometimes it's just ok to be an outlier. To be unique. It's not easy to be alone at times. To feel alone. Especially when you really don't want to. Sometimes there's no choice. But for the times I've felt completely in my element, especially with people I care for very much who reciprocate this, those times feel all the more special. For now, for today, I am trying to feel peace, even if I am alone, on many levels.

Have a great day Eric!
