I opened my mouth, almost said something. Almost. The rest of my life might have turned out differently if i had. But I didn't. - Khaled Hosseini (The Kite Runner)
^^^^ So True. I find it so easy to coexist with strangers. To go up in front of somebody you don’t know and completely be yourself is easy but with people you know you will meet again its impossible to not fear the impression you might leave. With people I know I am always careful of what I am doing, remembering to never make an mistakes.
But who can ever belong with a stranger, you can only belong with your friends. To my friends I am a stranger because they don’t know who I really am. To any stranger, no matter what true version of myself I show, I will always be just a stranger.
I am a stranger and I always will be.
I would never be part of anything. I would never really belong anywhere, and I knew it, and all my life would be the same, trying to belong, and failing. Always something would go wrong. I am a stranger and I always will be.

Every dreamer knows that it is entirely possible to be homesick for a place you've never been to, perhaps more homesick than for familiar ground.

Before I can live with other folks I've got to live with myself.
