@SW-User Oh yes. I reinvent myself when I’m unhappy. I have fun dreaming up my plans, then accomplishing them. It really is fun. I think I’d be a mess if I didn’t, as life can be pretty boring sometimes, but this works real well for me. I just redecorated my surroundings and am not quite done, but it made a huge difference to see bright, beautiful things, on a dime. Good Will! Here’s a picture I picked up for $6. 😆
It is huge, and looks gorgeous. I also recently got a kitten, and she is such a great joy.

@LadyGrace Good! Love it!!!😊 Love your cat! Is he looking at the picture frame?😅
We do dream alone. And die alone: no one joins us on that journey. But I do still believe it’s the connections between people that make life worth living. Happy Friday to you my friend!! 🍸
I am finally coming through the pain And life is not all dark If I knew then what I know now i'd do it again ,it was better to have known that kind of love and lost it then to have never known that type of love at all She broke me , But the master potter breaks the old clay anyway , He is still working on the new me ,not quite there yet but I have been through the fire a few times

@rckt148 Indeed, there are things, which in order to learn, we have to live through them. Thank you for the brilliant comment. ☺

@rckt148 It's edited..."we have to live through". Sorry for the typo error. ☺
@SW-User I got what you meant When I am broken I am a wounded animal most need to avoid But I am always reflecting and going over all the would haves ,should have, could have . And for a time I blame everything one me ,and my pain is so intense the last time I had a real heart attack ,and then they put me in an institution until I ate and slept right again ,they said I was trying to commit suicide by starvation . I lost my girls and then my Mom passed away shortly after ,it was to much She knew Mom was going at any time ,I was going through testing for cancer , I was also dealing with an addict I was trying to be there for It was a lot to take at one time ,,so when I broke ,I was broken . Feeling betrayed ,it came out Mom was stirring trouble with my siblings even on her death bed , my kids knew it was coming but they didn't warn me So I shut every one out of my life for 2 years , My Youngest stopped by to bring me food ,make sure I had clean clothes ,she had my ATM card so she paid my bills for me So I came out of it a different man ,,and I don't recommend it for everyone But now I know who I am ,why I am alive ,exactly what I want out of life and the type of woman I would like to share it with ,and now I have peace of mind .I still miss my girl ,but I am going to see her soon and let her know I still love her but I don't blame her ,that was a lot to be in the middle of . If I ever loved you ,I always will Now my family and I are close ,they know to never hold things back from me or to lie to me or I can live without them . I know now I am never alone ,,someone was in the fire with me I was a cry baby before ,always crying about all I have lost , how life is not fair ,bitter over all the takers . Now I have a path ,and sometimes it seems lonely But if thats what it took for me to see how blessed I am ,It was worth it As I said ,,I would do it all again ,,I am not the same man that went into the furnace ,but it did come close to killing me ,I am much stronger now And by the way ,thanks for the kindness I now appreciate that a lot more now days too
It’s not untrue. In some ways, we are always alone. Our experience is ours alone because we feel it with all our past experiences. But we’re more than one thing, one way. We’re capable of connecting. So we can be alone together. 🙂

@JustNik Thank you very much for the brilliant comment.
My post, is what I'm feeling today. Sometimes our connections too, somehow, make us feel more isolated and so much more alone. I hope it too, will pass.🙂
