Hello

Pronounced IN EXILE. Isolation is a feeling I have struggled with my entire life. Feeling as though I was alone, even when surrounded by people who I care about deeply. I have often felt as though I just don’t belong. Like an alien in an foreign land, lost without connections to those around me. My life has been a journey of seeking the balance of living in the world but not being of the world. It has been a road of deep failures and heartache, but also of great joy and celebration. Although I feel like I have arrived somewhere, I also know there is a long road ahead. Even if the road ahead is shorter than the road behind, I want every step to matter all the more. I may not belong here. I may be in exile. But I am not alone and neither are you.
