I'd felt this way most of my life: That I just didn't fit in anywhere. But, since joining the Fedora Lounge and getting back into photography, I've found the opposite to be true.
The objects I'd collect were just that; lost, broken and abandoned objects. I was collecting what I, myself, was allowing myself to be. But the Lounge and photography have opened a new world for me. I now have friends and a renewed interest in those things I collect. More than that, I'm beginning to narrow my collections down to those items which are most suited to who I'm now becoming, and finding out just who I am.
I'm no longer lost, no longer broken and feeling abandoned. I am now collecting friends, and I'm discovering something new . . . Life!
One cannot be lost, broken or abandoned with friends.

Exactly. I've spent years being exactly what I feared most; being alone. That is why I am now collecting friends. Not to have them there to fill a void, per se, but to also be there for them.
