No man is an island!

by | Business

No man is an island!

I’d heard it before. Maybe you have too.

I’d never fully understood it.

Nor had I translated it.

Never even thought about …

No woman is an island!

That thought didn’t even enter my head.

For most of my life I behaved as though I was an island. I believed I could be. I believed I was.

Rocky cliffs.
Rough seas.
Rocks and crags.
No lighthouses.

No easy way out. No easy way in.

All the while I was telling myself I could do it alone. I’m head strong. I’m independent. It felt safer somehow.

I’d spent my whole life trying to fit in. Trying to belong. Somewhere. Anywhere.

I guess I’d gotten to the point where it seemed preferable to do it all alone.

It just was.

Easier than being rejected.

Easier than feeling like a misfit. A freak.

Life’s shown me that being part of a supportive community of like-minded souls is beyond anything I could have ever imagined.

No longer am I doing it all alone.

I belong there.

I fit in there.
