We, as people -- how do we find where we fit in? I mean people in general not strictly deaf people. Everyone finds their little sects or niches where they feel most comfortable or that they belong. Sometimes I wonder if people ever really find that place or if they go through life just drifting. Of course it's really complex and some people just already are where they belong in a sense so to speak, they just don't see it. Think of it as a philosophical discussion, I want to hear others opinions on what they think about this sort of thing and their prespective.
 
Its all about the comfort of belonging. You certainly do not want to join the group of people who mocks you for who you are. But sometimes joining the newly group that are different from ya will help you learn new things. The only catch is that you will go through hardships.
 
That's about the gist of it, but not exactly what I was trying to discuss. Perhaps for my lack of better wording and grammar is at fault for the misunderstanding.

Basically I want to know what people think, that in the grand scheme of things do we simply stumble along to where we belong or if it's at fault of something greater than us -- Example: God, Destiny, Fate, Karma or are we to have to seek it out? It's a little bit of an age old question of when-either we control the path we walk or that free will is an illusion with a more specific topic than just life in general.
 
Remember, it's not only how you fit in other groups... but how others fit in with you.

There are a lot of Deaf (notice the big 'D'?) students here who only associate themselves with other Deaf students and only Deaf students. There are also hard-of-hearing (mostly oral & consider themselves hearing) who associate themselves with only hearing people. They then complain that others don't work with them well when it's really them who are leaving others out.
 
I am hearing , but I want....

I want to know if you feel what I feel....Do you wish that you could lose ten pounds to feel better about yourself or does it pertain to your hearing? Are you just as shy around boys/girls hearing as deaf? Do youlike to dance and if you do how do you feel the rythm of the music? I am on the verge of dedicating my life to the deaf world because I know that I can make a difference in so many lives---maybe even yours---I was a popular girl in high school and I have gained alot for myself, but I believe that full self fulfillment is with helping others........so please answer my questions........thanks
