imposter.
The rain is falling
I am both appreciative of and a bit intimidated by the folks around me. I don't have the big words on concepts that they do. I do not know the philosophy or Sciences. I believe that I would have, had I not strayed so far from myself in my early life. These folks have contributed so much and are working on so much, and I barely know what I am doing these days. Struggling to keep my orthocosmic body ticking?

The real admission here is that I don't know what I'm doing anymore. I went to school to be a developer, after "solving" my dilemma of what I wanted to do with my life. Art or technology. Writing or development. Part of what I have been going through recently has been a complete crisis insofar as the direction of my life.
crisis
The reality being that I didn't solve anything. I just said "I'll get more out of going to school for software. I can always write in my spare time"
And then what little attention I could focus on things was spent on school and no projects and now a job.
And I haven't written anything.
And I know that I won't
Or I will struggle…
crisis
It all seems like another thing that's not fair.
About the lives we -must- lead to survive.
I don't know what I'm doing anymore.
And I feel like it's too late…
And so many things that I've valued doing… MUCKS, role-play… it's all largely in the past.
And I can't seem to even get a job doing what i went to school for.
crisis
… because everything else hurts too much. Everything else feels like compromise. Everything else makes me want to scream.
I'M NOT FROM HERE.
I DON'T KNOW THIS PLACE. AND THESE BARRIERS AND RULES.
WHERE IS THE NET. I just want to do what i love AND NOT DIE IN POVERTY FOR IT.

This world is crap, I know. But there are a lot of people working to make it not-crap, so that whether you were supposed to be here or not you can at least be comfortable and do what you like... hopefully, that will be coming soon.
crisis
Somehow it all comes down to that.
It always seems to come down to that.
That I'm not human.
That I'm not from here.
That I don't understand these rules
and I don't understand this game
And everything always seems wrong
So terribly, terribly wrong
