Dear Kristy:

** Welcome to the club! =) I remember spending more time
with the teachers than with the kids.

think.

My

like you

even if
> it happens to be what they are doing.
** Actually, I don't feel any anger anymore. I did for a long time, but during my college
years, when I was searching myself for what I believed in and felt, and why, I discovered
that it was something I was hanging onto for no reason. I was able to let go of some
pretty big things then, such as the guilt button that my father and his family had
created, and that determination to dislike everything that was wildly popular. I actually
have met some of the people I went to school with. For some strange reason, they always
seem to remember me, no matter how different I look. And every one of them is always nice
to me and talks to me with respect. It's the strangest thing, cuz I usually don't
remember them. But anyway, I was able to come to the conclusion that I truly DO enjoy
being unique (not only do people almost always seem to remember you, but you never have to
be fake or pretend to remember/know/like somebody else), but that I didn't need to go to
the extremes of avoiding fads. That part of it wasn't me. Now I just like what I like,
regardless of others, whether it's popular or not. I'm old enough now, being 31, not to
pay attention to the hype. And I despise any of the shows that talk about designs and
fasions and which celebrities were "in" or "out". Bleh.
** But anyway, thanks for the thoughts and the different point of view. I needed to think
about it and feel within my gut whether or not it was true. I do know that I care about
some things. Just knowing that much is something that I hate to admit, much less share.
But I do know it's true. Not the uniqueness, though. That's just in my bones. =)
*hugs*
