In the gym
Three others are with me
I say:
“I will try to touch the rim!”
“Alright!” Shouts one of the kids with me
I stand back 30ish feet from the rim
Readying myself for what was to come
“Just think of it as jumping.”
“Don’t overthink it.”
Says a voice in my head
I start to run
Step
Step
Step
JUMP!
Soaring
Soaring
Soaring
Contact
Falling
Falling
Landing
Running
In exhilaration
A feeling of purest joy.
I have been feeling like I am even more different then normal because of my math teacher that I have. When I ask for something that I need to do well in school even though we are done with class and are waiting for the next class to be ready.
Being a teenager in today's world is so hard.
You have to deal with: stress of school, social interactions, people telling you what to do and what not to do.
When I go to school on occasion I worry that I will be treated differently because of my hearing.
something completely out of my control.
I fear that a teacher could pick me out of the class because of my differences.
