So last night I dreamed I was back and school, and even though I was doing okay in class, I felt like there was a barrier between me and the other students, one I could see through, but could never cross. I would never truly connect with them, nor they with me.

That's pretty much how I felt in real life too - and I still struggle with feeling like that today.

I totally get that Dottie, that really is a "you and me both, miduck" statement.
I would counter that, as the kids these days say, you have to find your tribe.
And the good news is that that is us!
Tribe found, connections made, you, my friend, are at the centre of all that happens here.

A big chunk of Facebook and all of Meetup.com are =designed= to help you "find your tribe". Head on over and start looking. Keep us posted.

"Flip" the meaning of your 'headline" - Get outside and look into the places where you fit. =Then join=. You can't =feel like an insider= while you are =physically standing there as an outsider=.

Some years back, I said to one of the Officers in my Humanist group "I'm trying to build a Home here."
