I've spent most of my life absorbed in my own little bubble. The world it seems, is too complicated, too big and far too scary to face. And yet here I am for the first time, attempting to break free from what has been a perpetual state of non existence.

The Universe's subtle cries have become desperate pleas and I can no longer retreat in to the simplicity of my own thoughts. The resistance is still strong, and as I emmerge into this new world, I am bombarded with the overwhelming sense that I don't belong.

Am I the ferrel child that's rescued and brought in to society, or am I the sheltered city kid that's removed from his bed and placed into the wilderness? I guess it doesn't matter, for the feeling of home sickness is just as strong either way.

I wrote this little piece to try and come to terms with my inability to relate to the world around me. I never really fit in. All through school I only had one friend, and I've always been a bit of a loner. So lately, I've been trying to relate to people, to talk to them, but nothing seems to work. I'm so sick of being alone, but I don't know how to make friends. I feel like an outcast at school, at work, and at home. The only person I don't feel like an outcast around is my best friend. I don't know what to do. I don't want to be alone any longer, but how am I supposed to make friends if I don't fit in?

Practice makes perfect. If you feel you dont fit in, try to mold yourself to fit in, learn to do it by practicing, this doesnt mean that you will change completely just to be near people, it just means that youll learn to adapt to the to different places, so adapt yourself, try liking some things that others like, learn from others, what they like to do, what they dont like, find a common ground, whatever that is, it may not be interests, but ways of life, or sense of humour, or personality, or just an interest in the other person.

Maybe you should try traveling to another place. People change a lot from place to place, try it.

I hope that helps, Jesus bless you.
