I have a lot of great people in my life--friends, professional colleagues, artistic collaborators, students, audience members, a new meetup group for singers and songwriters, etc.--but sometimes I just feel like I am from another planet. In my poetry I call it being from the Planet ZXR7, where peace is peace, and war is no more, and no one there wants to even the score. Not like I'm this perfect person, but all my life I have felt like I don't fit in, or I don't get life on this planet, in some fundamental way. Ever since my recent "break-up," I have felt like this even more: like I'm here on this planet to help, to teach, to write, to sing, to love, but to never truly be loved in return in ways that are meaningful to me. I feel like I am going through this dark night of the soul, where I am admitting that I don't know what love or friendship is anymore. I tell my friends how I feel, but I can tell that they usu.do not get me. Have you ever felt like this? What did you to heal?
