Have you ever felt like an Outsider?
An Outsider is someone who isn’t part of the clique.
They’re not the cool kids. But they can chill with the skater kids, the arty kids, the drama kids, the nerdy kids and the stoner kids.
An Outsider is happy going against the grain.
When everyone’s busy rushing off to work, stuck in a traffic jam. The Outsider is quietly sitting in a park listening to the birds sing.
An Outsider follows their own path.
The journey is the destination, as Dan Eldon would say. So an Outsider writes their own story — one page at a time.
An Outsider observes the world for themselves.
They’re most happy when they listen to their inner intuitions, not what mass-media tells them to think and feel.
An Outsider is cool with going solo.
They would rather be true to themselves, then assimilate into a larger group. Though friendly allies are always welcome.
An Outsider has their own schedule.
Their goals may take months, years or decades to achieve. But an Outsider is not influenced by the time & schedule of others.
An Outsider follows their own dreams.
An Outsider dreams of something that they have to achieve for themselves. They may die trying to achieve that dream, but that’s happiness to them.
