Being single

For the first time in my life I've been single for over a year. I've decided I want to be for a while. I need to find the me I am when I'm not with someone. But life does get lonely the winter is the worst early dark nights and too cold to be outside too long. That's why I go to my local park often. Its no-where special but just the warmth of the sun and the fresh air makes me feel better, content.

That's a very smart decision and a wise one. When my husband died in 2005, I've been alone since, and it was an adjustment of course, like anything else, but I enjoy being alone. I do enjoy my own company. No one to answer to, or asked when will you be back and what time or whatever. Haha

There are times especially in fall, though, that gets me the most, when I would love nothing more than to have a male companion come along to take the long drives I so used to go on and enjoy, to see the beautiful scenery, so I do miss that very much. It just seems like more fun, to me, to be able to point things out, you know, and say "Hey... look at that! Isn't that beautiful?" Oh I miss that so much, sharing the beautiful things God made in this world, with someone.

You adjust, and I think you will like it. You're listening to your heart and that's so important. You are in tune with your body and mind and that's a good thing.
