Solitude

Some people love to be alone.  Some people cherish solitude.  They use it to listen to music, read a book, work on their hobby or do something they have been meaning to do for a while.  Peace and quiet is what they call it.

For me it is painful, excruciating.  Sure being busy can be exhausting and can keep you from doing other things.  However, for me being alone is a painful reminder of just how alone I am. I am blessed with a beautiful princess who showers me with love.  I have friends and so called friends who I can spend time with and hang out.

Being with someone can be as simple as just sharing space together.  You don't have to talk or BE together you can just be in the same room together, occupy the same space.  The occasional glance or gentle touch can be a powerful reminder that you are not alone.

Being alone is a painful reminder that at the end of the day I am alone, unloved and unwanted.

Oh, to be truly loved again!

Welcome

So I have started a blog! Now what?!?

I have dreams of posting daily the most inspirational and thought provoking posts you have ever read. Dreams of hilarious stories from the life of my precious munchkin. Dreams of posting life altering tips and strategies, recipes that will entice your taste buds. However, being the practical person that I am I will likely not take the time to make this the most tantalizing blog ever to be created.

I am a single mom with a five year old angel (most days), a full-time job, trying to find God's direction and presence in my life, helping a friend with his photography business. Need I say more?!? If there is something you would like to hear about let me know!
