So I am human after all. The realization that you are just as fragile and ordinary as everyone else. I use to think that maybe I could be part supernatural being. I would have to be, right? Everyone around me seems so predictable and common. I had to have something special about me. Maybe I was part alien. My 23andme results did find 2% of my ancestry as "unknown". And the mothership would eventually beam me back up and I live happily ever after with my people. Or maybe I had the blood of a vampire and health and good looks were forever mine. I was for sure about my theories when everyone around me liked Big Bang Theory and I found it contrived and completely unfunny. Or the fact that when I was younger most of my girlfriends wanted to spawn and marry a "rich guy". That could just be a result of living in Kansas and the bar was set low for success. But I did find out.... I share the same insides, I suffer the same illnesses. I am so human. And finding out you have MS on top of it, made the truth ring clear and it was piercing. Anyways, I could of just caught this from being around humans too long. Or maybe they think it is MS but my brain is really trying to morph into its super "human" strength. But whatever, I am okay with being just human. Means that I am not alone and can take comfort in that. Sometimes it isn't always cool to be isolated and standoffish. That is the teenage, early twenties, mid twenties, late twenties, early thirties me. But I still keep a look out for that mothership...
