I Live Amongst Them But Not Of Them

I don't know if everyone feels the way I do about other people. There are very few people I feel I'm on the same plane with. Most of the world seems to be a different species to me. It's lonely, because in almost every context I feel isolated and vaguely alien. There are a few people with whom I feel utterly at home, and I treat them as family. The rest of the world I try and understand and relate to, and have a lot of friends with which that's enough, but on the whole there's an abyss between me and the people around me.

I've been wondering if that's the kind of loneliness that brought about the pictures in Messer that affected me so much.
