Atypical & Awesome “Homecoming Queen”

Truth of the matter is I’ll never be Homecoming Queen. I’ve never been Ms Popularity, Ms “It”, or the crowd favorite. I’m weird. Moody. Quirky. Like really quirky. I’m too much or too confusing for most people. I don’t really fit in anywhere. I’m too Christian for some circles, too alternative and progressive for others. I’m too this not enough that. But maybe it is this “weirdness” that makes me a good therapist. I can literally relate to anyone. I get it. I know what it’s like to be excluded, ignored, unheard. Aloneness can be a really important thing. God made my brain “different”. I am “atypically” creative. The words and songs and ideas never stop. I just plainly do not live in the same world as most. Be nice to me. I’m a nice person. Some would say I’m a hard nut to crack. My husband says no- I’m pretty easy. He’s a saint. Lol. Include me. Even if I don’t go. Invite me. Check on me now and then. Most of the time, I’m hunky dory. But not always. I’ve been dealing with two of the hardest things I’ve ever dealt with over the past year. Most people are clueless. And that’s okay. Just know, everyone is carrying boulders. Just be kind to each other- especially, your weird friends. Life is tough but beautiful. Just be kind. It’s not high school- there’s room for everyone at the lunch table.
