A piece of me

I don't believe in any organized religion. Never have really. It doesn't make sense to me. I read a lot of philosophy. I study psychology (a lot through my own therapy.). I read about how modern religions trace back to ancient myths (Joseph Campbell mostly). I don't relate to many people because I'm not sure I'm even wired for it. I always feel distant. It's been hard for me to find my place and try to understand how I fit into this world. I'm empathic far beyond the norm, and I'm not even sure how to use most of what I feel. I an certain that the answer lies somewhere in the chemistry of my brain though. I'll either figure it out, come upon someone else who can tell me or I'll become a true Bodhisattva and it won't matter. ;) Either way, I am what I am, and that's OK. Somewhere inside, I feel like I'm meant for more than what and where I am, but we'll see what happens. I may just be trying to live up to my dad. Only time will tell.
