The only concept or experience or core belief that I can attribute my other-ness to is that I just started out a weirdo and I stayed a weirdo. And it took me a long time to embrace my outsidership and see it as a strength rather than a weakness.
Like most people I can be lazy so it's nice to have a goal or deadline or reason to work out. I feel better when I get to exercise or when I'm outdoors. I like to hike swim and run and I love to play soccer.
