Comet’s Session

I recall a memory regarding a introduction session with my school counselor, Ms.Ractey was her name I believe. During this introduction, she asked me “what do you think are some goals for the following years?” I said “being able to prove that I don’t need to rely on others and can be my own individual.” She replied with a bright smile and then asked “what do you think about society these days?” I said “I don’t. Society is simply living together to form a community...either way what they do doesn’t impact me from living, which is perfectly fine. I’d like to keep things that way. To be separated from it and keep my distance is much more safe in my eyes, because I know that if I keep intact with society I will end up relying on it and depend on it to give me it’s undivided attention. Which I don’t want.” She suddenly seemed concerned and asked me “do you ever feel somewhat disconnected from it?” I replied with “No, because in truth I’ve never felt connected to it in the first place. It makes no sense from where I stand because here I am attending school publicly and am talking to you, but know that none of this was my choice, I was forced to attend school and participate to these sessions.” Towards the end of our session she seemed upset and ended up giving my parents a call, they too were upset and grounded me from having technology because they believed I was learning this from social media. They simply don’t understand that our thoughts are made up from ourselves alike how our personality is made. “I stopped explaining myself to people because I realized they would only ever understand me from their perspective” a quote to sum up my thoughts! （￣へ￣）
