The weed guy is always welcome at the party. He’s not a part of the circle, but he’s invited into the circle temporarily because of what he can offer. That’s who I was. Always an outsider. As the outsider, you can retreat into a shell, be anonymous, be invisible. ]]> 2019-11-20 12:59:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mlague/BAC68/wish/413947374 mlague https://padlet.com/mlague/BAC68/wish/413948011 2019-11-20 13:00:30 UTC https://padlet.com/mlague/BAC68/wish/413948011 mlague https://padlet.com/mlague/BAC68/wish/413951755  I learned that even though I didn’t belong to one group, I could be a part of any group that was laughing. I’d drop in, pass out the snacks, tell a few jokes. I’d perform for them. I’d catch a bit of their conversation, learn more about their group, and then leave. I never overstayed my welcome. I wasn’t popular, but I wasn’t an outcast. I was everywhere with everybody, and at the same time I was all by myself.

He got the best of both.

Trevor's ability to speak most, if not all, relevant languages allows him to fit in, and exist under the radar as a friend to all. However this along with his skin tone mark him as outsider and different from the fellow man therefore you know he's special and you know he's not your enemy even though he speaks their language.
