title:    I Am (Not) a Fox
unlisted: true
---

I am not a fox.
It would be ridiculous to claim otherwise since a fox wouldn't be able to type this text on a keyboard, or come up with it in the first place.
A fox probably couldn't have a job as a software developer either.
But despite reality being what it is, my existence as a human being doesn't feel right to me.
I've felt this way for pretty much my entire life.

I was 6 years old when I first became aware that something was wrong.
I'm sure most of have seen the movie "The Sword in the Stone" by Disney, wherein the protagonist Arthur is transformed into various animals to learn about physics and other things.
When I watched this movie, I was fascinated by the idea of being a bird and wondered what it would feel like to be one.
