The Perfect Space

I wanna fit in to the perfect space,
feel natural and safe in a volatile place.
-Avett Brothers 
 
Have you ever felt left out before? No matter how hard you try to fit in with those around you, there is this constant notion that it's not your place. It's as though you don't belong.

There are a lot of ideas about what being in this world and not of this world looks like. For me, it's about being counter cultural. It's about not accepting the status-quo just because it's the popular opinion, even within the world of faith.

Maybe a part of being counter-cultural means always feeling like you don't belong.

This should not be a means for pretentious behavior. I am no better than those around me, like-minded or not. We all deal with the same emotions, problems, and issues. We all have dirt. We all have grime. The question is, what are you willing to do about it?

Feeling out of place is no excuse to watch events unfold from the sidelines. The truth of the matter is:

We all have purpose.

We all have destiny.

We all have a choice.

Choose to live for those around you. Choose to make the world a better place.

Be somebody.
