Gratitude

My mother all my life taught me to think out side the box. Apparently unknowingly, she wanted me to think differently from others. Because of this, as a boy I always searched for answers that apparently no one had. I would infuriate my school teachers because of the constant challenges I brought to the class, making me a “trouble maker”. No one understood me, as it seemed and eventually giving up. I ended up in a lot of trouble and commencing my journey to self destructiveness, awakening a few years later realizing what I was doing wasn’t my natural state. My whole life I thought I was alone, that this couldn’t be true. No one had answers! But I never believed what happened in the world was because that’s just the way it was. There had to be a reason why things didn’t work. I’m very grateful I was found, and finally realize that I truly am not alone. I haven’t been in The Society very long, but I feel as you are my family. I almost feel belonging to a different breed of homo sapiens. I am so happy I was found I could just cry at times of joy. Like a child lost in the dark woods being found by his father…
