This genuinely feels like you've written about my life John! I had always been the 3rd, 5th or 7th wheel in any friends group. The person everyone shared their stories with but never asked what's happening with me. Wanting to fit in either made me a full giver or just numb not feeling anything.
And then I met other weirdos like me and life transformed. Because simply the realisation that there are others like me ...where I don't have to explain my being to them ...where I don't have to apologise at every turn ...gosh! What a relief! They acted like bridges to bring me to the other side. Inspired me to embrace all parts of myself. Stand in my own power and gifts. Be okay with not being understood by everyone.
Life has radically transformed in the last 4 years. It gives me chills!

We belong to ourselves, first and foremost. When we find others who also believe that, it brings such peace doesn’t it?
