Dear Lonelyone
having now read the rest of the thread...
i agree that maybe you just haven't found what your interests are. people can be awfully unkind. the fact that you dropped out of college and choose not to return doesn't make you a second citizen. but i know what you mean. i am afraid of showing one of my transcripts for how many Fs it has on it. they don't really speak for my ability, but it doesn't matter... i can't stand the look on people's faces...
and i do, btw, find you very articulate. maybe when you speak the shyness causes things to get jumbled. but you do write expressive posts. one day who knows... perhaps you could publish something... not to put pressure on you now.
Lisa, thank you for your post - it is comforting to know one can figure oneself out in one's late forties.
