The latter was clearly a case of escapism from an environment that was preoccupied by what would become The Little family and by other cousins who were physically handicapped. This was very oppressive. It was also due to boredom at school where I felt better when I was allowed to skip grades. I learnt more at home than in school, I am afraid.<br /><br />I wish I were able to escape reality as easily today. Perhaps I do with blogging and reading.

My parents moved us into a middle class neighborhood a year and one half later but I could never adjust to this new environment especially since we didn't have a house but a small apartment -- so low in status. I found I couldn't find girlfriends to be with easily because the mothers segregated their daughters, controlled their "playdates."<br /><br />Going into puberty I found boys abrasive, aggressive and got myself into trouble quickly, I was publicly humiliated in a sexual scene I'll never forget or get over. I retreated from these horrible encounters and became anorexic and isolated. But I was safe and at peace. My teen years were spent alone reading. I did not imagine myself the triumphant heroine but identified with Jane Eyre (as the world sees it not a conqueror), Fanny Price, and I found peace in older books. My first satisfaction in life was to find museums to go to in Manhattan, and go to college where academically I succeeded and found a world I could thrive in as a student. I never made a transition into a serious money-making prestige career because I was too terrified, didn't understand how to do it, didn't have the self-esteem. Today I could do better and would understand what was my problem but my solution of the beloved, congenial companion who enabled me is the only one I could ever have had or have today were I young. <br /><br />So I too had a long period of retreat and understand.Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14979942382683140531noreply@blogger.com
