What does getting better look like to you?
I can hear how hurt you are...and how exhausted you sound when you speak of being tired of everything.
I too am a bit of a misfit....always have been. Never included in anything, always alone, feel different from everyone everywhere and I constantly wonder why I was born onto this Earth if I am only going to be alone.
But one thing I am learning....
The world needs it's misfits...just as much as it needs anyone else. It takes all kinds to make this world go round and if everyone was the same...it would be a pretty boring place.
Lots of us feel like we don't fit. I know I do. And in this way we do fit. We fit in with a collective group of people who feel astray. We fit in...because we don't fit in.
I long to be understood by people as well. But it's getting to the point where I am asking myself why. Why does it matter if anyone else understands me? Right now, I would settle for just understanding myself.
Even if everyone understood you, there would still be no guarantee that you would feel less alone. Kind of like being in a crowded room, at a party, and feeling like you are the only one that knows your there!!
You do fit....just not conventionally. And as painful as this can be...there's nothing wrong with that.
You matter!! You matter as much as anyone and everyone else does.
So what if people don't understand you. They don't have to live in your skin.
Keep your head up!!!
