Searching
Much of my life has been spent searching. At a young age I searched for acceptance for
myself, the weird kid that spent most of his free time drawing, building, or
reading. Then I searched for strong friendships—and
I still am. As I grew older I began to
search for love—which I’ve never found—and my place in the world. Never found that, either. I searched a wide variety of career options
and degree programs. Even though I found
a master’s program that wanted me, no one in that world wants me as their
employee. Often times my life is
incredibly difficult and lonely. And I’m
not wallowing in pity because so many are worse off than me—they are trapped in
terrible situations and will never be able to escape. One way or another, someday I want to be
wanted. With all that said, I think I
look better now than at any time in my life.
I’ve finally grown into my own skin.
