I have been active in several different kinds of support groups over the years. I was told early on to try and reach out to others who looked lost or alone. I always did that.

I became friendly with people. But I never did make a connection or really feel "a part of." I put it down to something wrong inside me. How ever I no longer tell myself it's "wrong" I just accept that I am how I am. I keep an open mind that maybe someday I will connect with someone - besides my husband - but in the meantime I'm grateful for what I have and work at accepting myself and others just as they are.

Doesn't make me feel better, no meaning to me for sure.
Can't stop you from praying and blessing me,
and if that makes you feel better feel free.
But keep it to yourself please, don't tell me.
And let's all respect each other's feelings.
With kindness, support and "sweet dreamings."
