what is it that you feel you lack amongst many others who seem to have it?

You know, I have been thinking and pondering, but, fail to come up with anything.

I'm 65, Retired, fairly educated, have had a relatively insane life, an NDE Survivor, have more than enough money I need, 2 successful Sons, beautiful loving wife and enough toys to last me to the grave. (well, I still am looking for that bigger boat). As far as the Inner-self; pretty well satisfied with that too.

I thank you for this question; as, it reminds me of how really lucky I have been. Most of the time, I don't think about it.

You want social skills? Go over to the Theatre Arts Building and take some acting classes, it will really help a lot. Or, take some Sociology classes.

I feel that I lack the fudge factor so many people I meet seem able to fudge beliefs or live with contradictory stories _ I am so literal maybe because I have DI.D I need to keep a firm grip on reality and what is rather than what ought to be an dI feel pretty buffeted by the looseness out there- Like people seem to be able to cherry pick reality and move from reality to story without a blink - I wish I had some of what they were on.

I could agree to that. As long as I can remember, I've always been slightly out of phase with the world; I say things at the wrong time, don't get many social conditions, or am clueless to an inside joke, feel confused in crowded conditions, etc. It's all like static to me. Like I'm 2 feet to the left of everyone. I can't explain it any better, but I've grown accustomed to it.

Me too I coudn't socialize. I need space and time to be alone since I am exhausted in between people. Even my family.. I coudn't stand with them when I need to be alone

Quite a lot. But the one that i can't tolerate the most is bending my leg vertically 90 degrees. :(

I feel 2 b 'content' whatever strengths,weakness , education,knowledge etc I lack or not. They hate, if you are beautiful ,intelligent, they hate if you are lacking it

I focus on that which I have not what I lack

I have Happiness, Peace and Harmony in my life...
