Feeling left out?

There are situations where you just feel like you are left out. You don’t belong in the group. The conversations just don’t align with your individual interests. Or it is just people being so busy and barely get the time to be present.

Feeling left out resonates with me from a very young age. It started when I noticed more attention was clearly given to one child than the other. I experienced it in schools when the teacher praises the smart child. I saw it when you find people engaged in a conversation with purposely excluding you.

It is common. We are human beings. Probably this could resonate more with the highly sensitive people who sense things from a long distance.

But what can you do when you feel left out? Well it is simple. Just communicate and open up with the right people. Now you may wonder: What if I am rejected? What if I sound like stupid or irrelevant? What if they don’t understand me? That actually doesn’t matter. The truth about communication is that it is so dynamic. It goes up, down, right, left, in silent, in going out, in changing the place or maybe changing the topic or waiting for another suitable time to talk and express.

At the end, it is not easy to fully experience your human life. You get to feel different emotions, process them, make sense of them, understand them and move on with your life. But what is even better is you live your life fully to the maximum and be humble and vulnerable enough to come down to earth and express your concerns, doubts and worries.
