Out of the Crowd

Small comfort are the smiling crowds. I've learned not to take my cues from those around me. Consensus has suffered too many blows to its credibility. That I am cautious with regards to the majority is no flippant disrespect. I simply haven't been served well by norms or going with the flow. Not that finding my own way has been any easier. But such is my story. The road of least resistence, though long of temptation and often tried, has always been a dead end. In many venues I portray the consumate average joe. In the most important ones, I am anything but. Another day becoming comfortable with being me.
