Well, I've never really posted here to express my own concerns, only to attempt to help others with their's. However, I feel like this once I need to steal the spotlight for a bit and say a few words, advice would be appreciated, but more I'm looking at expressing myself to you all, rather than necessarily seeking advice.
Recently I've really been starting to notice something about myself, and this feeling is particularly stronger tonight. It is a feeling of isolation, loneliness. At the moment I feel somewhat cut off from the rest of the world, like I don't really fit in. Even here, there are opinions that are more commonly shared, opinions I often don't share, this seems to be the case everywhere. I know I'm an individual, I always have been, however right now I feel individual to the point where I'll never fit anywhere, my opinions and self are too mixed to settle in fully with everyone. I've always been a strong believer in being true to oneself, perhaps to a fault. I'm starting to feel that perhaps I should compromise myself in order to fit it, instead of being so egotistical and thinking that I shouldn't ever need to change for anyone else. I'm not particularly depressed, so don't worry about that, I'm more just pondering and wondering what I can do in order to fit in. I mean, it just seems that I don't fit any social classification, or that I fit so many classifications a little bit that I can't fully settle into one. Anyway, that's all, feel free to go about your regular business now.
Look at this tree. I cannot make it blossom when it suits me nor make it bear fruit before its time [...] No matter what you do, that seed will grow to be a peach tree. You may wish for an apple or an orange, but you will get a peach.
