I think I’ll join the club here ! I totally understand! Especially what theoutsider1983 is saying. That’s what The Incredibles does for me, and music. I know, when a certain song comes on, I just wanna run, but we’ll be in a crowd of people, so I can’t. Or it’ll make me think of a story and then I want to act it out. I like to go to my room and talk to myself. That helps get out feelings. But talking to people is always nice, and it is hard to find people who understand. I think that’s why God gave us each other: for friendship and support.
And I can relate to feeling coming with music. I can feel despair, excited, happy, or fearful with music. It’s nice to go on adventures like that. My mom always encouraged it in me, and I am who I am today because of the God given gift to be able to do that.
And amen to what Virginia said: “…you’ve got God and yourself…” I still think companionship is important, but truthfully, that’ that only thing you really need.
I’ve also had discouragement from others, including the occasional comment from my dad (I don’t think he means to discourage me, but he doesn’t live in my head, so he think some things are pointless, I think.). And I still play with toys, and probably always will. I’ve been made fun of for that. But if that’s who you are, there’s nothing wrong with that. Personally, I think we need more people like that. I like that and I think the world should be more accepting, but, sadly, we don’t live in a perfect society.
Point is, you’re not alone . And you can never please everybody. So don’t even try . People are usually to fickle, in my opinion. It’s a rare cookie that will accept you for who you are. Thankfully, we’ve been blessed with a bunch of them here in the Pixar Planet community. Others are important. But at the end of the day, you’re life is between you and God.
