#8 - A Tribe of His Own
Some say a person who takes a road less traveled is a free spirit. Someone who does not conform to what others believe to be normal. This is not the case for him.
At every opportunity to conform he has failed. Not for the lack of trying, but rather, the lack of understanding on the part of others. The way he dresses. The way he speaks. His interests. All these peculiarities seem to work against him, yet he continues to search for the road to conformity.
He takes the road less traveled not because he wants to be different or go against the societal perception of normal. He takes the road less traveled in search of those who will understand and support him. A tribe of his own, where he can openly discuss that which interests him without being judged. A tribe of his own, that won’t fault him for the way he dresses. A tribe of his own, that will listen intently while he speaks.
He takes the road less traveled in search of a tribe of his own. He takes the road less traveled in search of a place he can call home.
