hullo again .
last post i made, i discussed how i don’t feel human, and asked for advice.
(side note, my kin [ponyboy] is human, just for anyone that doesn’t know.)
i will provide more details here.
— i feel more animal than other species (unsure what to call them, examples being angel, alien, etc.)
— doing mild research, I don’t believe it’s a past life situation. it’s more so now, i don’t feel like a human, i don’t have memories.
— this could play a role, could not. unsure. ive been going through a bit of a rough time recently, and feeling like this started a bit before everything going on.
open to more discussion and questions, everything is appreciated !
again, if this is the wrong spot i will delete this.
- 📚☀️ (perhaps a kin signoff) / ponyboy c.

wanted to talk, i guess ? it’s kind of insane how much this book affected me. the outsiders has me actively trying to be a better person, be good, yknow?
could have affected me like this cus I was in a pretty bad spot last year, when i had first read it. it gave me something else to think about, characters to draw or write about or see myself in. i remember how badly it hurt me when >!dally came right after johnny. !<i remember it so well, and then we watched the movie after, i dressed up for it. wore a leather jacket i found at a thrift store. i just loved that book, and i know a lot of people didn’t really care for it too much, cause it was a school book. luckily for me, ive got friends to encourage my love for things.
eventually, this year i realized they had a musical. man was i excited. there wasn’t much i wanted to do this year, but i realized the musical would be in my city. well, that settled it. im a kid still, and can’t afford tickets on my own, but im very grateful for my parents. we went to see it, and i brought my best friend. i don’t know how many of yall have seen the musical, but great expectations in person, it’s insane. id do so many things to feel that again.
back on the topic of the book. it was what got me back into reading, it has me writing more, going outside more, seeing people more often, hell, sometimes i even watch the sunset or the sunrise. ive been getting a lot better, i think. and it’s kind of crazy to me to think how much the outsiders has helped with that.
sorry if this is the wrong place for this, but tagged this as discussion in case anyone else wants to talk about their experience.
