Being part of the in crowd.
Feeling like one of the cool kids.
Belonging.
The great dilemma of a lifetime.
We try so so so hard to be liked. To be loved. To be part of the scene.
It changes like shifting sands.
It is exhausting to keep up.
It is a lot of work to win an un-win-able game.
Just blazing our own trail sounds oh so good, so freeing, so do-able.
But it does not seem easy.
We all want to be loved.
To be accepted.
To be wanted.
What if we started with fitting in to our own skin, and felt unshakably good about our own selves?
Not that is the kind of fitting in I can count on.
