That human thing.

Sometimes I think it would be easy to blame being trans for the lack of connections I have in my life.  However, that would be a cop out.  It may have contributed a little but most of my issues comes from not getting the whole human thing.  I am, and always have been, on the outside looking in on life.  

It is really easy for people to tell me to just get over it and socialize.  I do try, I just don’t have a success record.  People just don’t get me or want to.  I really do want to be a part of it all.  I want to feel included and I will continue to work on that but I will be realistic with my expectations.  Anyway, that is my rant for today.  I will go back to being positive.
