Not a follower
All the recommendations for blogs suggest consistency as the key. I’m not consistent when it comes to blogging regularly; my apologies. I blog because it gives me an opportunity to do what I usually suppress: Expressing myself.
My last blog was over two months ago. It’s not that I haven’t had things on my mind. It’s that I haven’t given myself permission to do the things that I enjoy. It’s funny (or sick, depending on how you look at it), that I tend to give more emphasis to other people’s needs or desires than my own. I am great about meeting work deadlines, milestones, but I don’t give the same importance and urgency for my own personal milestones and deadlines.
Do I have any personal milestones?
All my life, I have never felt as if I belonged to a specific group; I have always felt like an outsider. A butterfly fluttering from one social group to the next. I can identify with each group, but I don’t feel aligned only to one group. This creates a dilemma.
Where exactly do I belong?
You belong with people who love you for who you are, wherever they may be. No one group or one place has a corner on that market, but that doesn’t make you an outsider – only someone that people are drawn to. Find a way to give yourself permission to be whomever you want to be whenever you feel like it. I haven’t yet found a way, but you’re way more stubborn than even me (which is a challenge!), so I’m convinced that you will and you’ll teach me.
May be it’s good not belonging to one group coz many times it can block you so much you can’t think or see beyond the walls of the group; Or end up seeing everything thru tinted glasses of a group.
And isn’t it nice to ‘be universal’! Free, like a butterfly. like Buddha… In a way you belong to every social group you feel for at the moment.
