I can't say I'm bothered much anymore about "walking alone".  I think I quite prefer it actually and I take pride in it, but today it seemed to get to me.  

 "People are sheep", my university professor once told me and though I never wanted to be a "sheep", tonight I kind of felt like a lost tiger and being a sheep didn't look so bad... they're nice a fluffy right.  They make for great sweaters and cozy blankets.

 This is definitely right in line with what my mother told me. “Don’t change to fit in. You don’t want to fit in with them... be the change you want to see.”
