A Little Lost, I just am really impressed with your picture. You look like the kind of person that would be fun to play imagine or talk to.

I was rejected as a child by peers and felt like a square peg in a round hole.

I never was popular, but I survived. I learned to live under stressful situations. I learned to stand up for myself and not buy in to the things people said about me.

You may feel like in one way your life has been a failure, but I bet if you really looked at all the people you helped then you would see it as a success. Some people told me years later that I was a person they looked up to. I was shocked.

If I am on the other side before you, I would want to be there to welcome you to Eternity or wherever we go to after here. I see myself in people like you. I feel a kinship as if we are long lost brothers and sisters. We have gone through the same school, the school of hard knocks.

You make me feel hope that I will discover other of my long lost kin. I really am glad you touched my life. It has made a big difference to me.

I hope we can share more stories if you feel so inclined. Please feel free to private message me or any of the Community Liaisons by left clicking on the name in blue to the left of their post) for questions or just to share.

If you ever wonder about what is after here, the book by Raymond Moody, MD called Life After Life describes people's visions of what happened when they were medically dead in the hospital and were revived to tell about it. They never talk of failure only experience and wisdom and moving on. When we know the magnificence inside us it can overwhelm our feelings the world has painted us with. When we know our true potential we are more than we ever imagined.
