I feel a bit like a duck trying to fit in with pigeons. It's possible and if I try hard the pigeons will see me as one of them but it's not in my nature to sit on trees, I feel much more myself swimming in the pond.

You’re not intruding Kevlar

I think the “fitting in” is a subjective thing. It’s whatever works for us, and we can choose to fit in with anything that works for us and choose to not try to fit in with anything that doesn’t work for us

we’re all completely unique individuals after all ❤️
Hope you’re having a better day today Kevlar

Thanks Willow

the day is just ending on my side of the globe but I hope I will feel better tomorrow. I see what you mean about not having to fit in everywhere. But I never felt like I fit in anywhere really. I guess that's not uncommon amongst us alcoholics / addicts.

Have a wonderful day! Much love!

Hi everybody feeling like they don't quite fit in, I am with you. Always felt different, even amongst very unique individuals, there always seems to be something off about me. I'm weird, I'm an outsider. I do feel better about it nowadays but it was problematic in the past.

Yikes! A storm just parked itself over my neighborhood. lightning is striking really close to my house. I hope it keeps moving, when storms stop over here for too long we get flooded quickly.
