My purpose?

I think for some of us, at least. We are wondering if we have a purpose in this world? I think I may be on the path to mine.

I was thinking, despite my “niceness”, I’m not really a popular person, never have been, Heck, years ago a girl said to me “If you’ve made Lauren mad, you know you’ve done something wrong” Then like two months later, she was joining in on bullying me. My now ex, best friend of half my life, decided that I am just this rotten human being. I am also literally no ones “favourite”.

I have often wonder what the purpose of my life even is. Everyone in my family are like these out there, amazing individuals, doing amazing things with their lives. I’m just kind of plodding along. My friends are usually extroverts, while I am an introvert.

So what do I think may be my purpose? I am starting to think…I am straight cis white woman, I am lucky in a lot of ways.

I am not saying that I am a Gypsy…

I ask for nothing, I can get by
But I know so many less lucky than I
Please help my people
The poor and down trod
I thought we all were the children of God
God help the outcasts…

I can help and use my privilege. I’m sure as heck though, not going to use white woman tears to get it though.
