Re: Becoming something else

[(Anonymous)]

I understand, OP. Though I can't say our experiences have been the same, I'm a country girl in a crowd of people in which I can hear myself being different. I have an accent, I use particular turn of phrases without thinking that really mark me as being from a different background, and I feel like I'm just not the same.

However, I've chosen to feel proud of where I am and of where I'm from. I've worked to be where I am now and it's not a disguise, I own it. Moreover, talking to people around me, I discovered that some of the people who seemed so above me were not so different and had incredibly tough lives.

OP, I hope that you'll manage to come to terms with it. Your education and knowledge are part of who you are, they're not a disguise. *hugs*

I guess to some extent it's good to be proud of coming from somewhere different, but I feel like there's a whole lot more shame and judgment tied to more specific aspects of what it was like living there.

You're right in that I probably ought to start feeling like I should and can incorporate my life now into my identity.

I guess it's just kind of difficult. I feel like I'll always, in essence, be different in a way that isn't good, or acceptable, or compatible with the society I've moved into.

Like... absolutely no one I know in this social circle carries a knife. I still do.
