I do love your point of view Lexie. For me, right now, Ive never felt more alone. As I watch my Mom wither away and try to cope with the end of a relationship that I had hoped would last forever, I am scared and feeling so alone. Interestingly enough, I'm NEVER alone. I have children, work, friends, but yet, I do feel a giant hole. I wish so desperately to share life with someone special. To laugh with and to cry with during the sad times. I want that. I do. Maybe I will get better at this alone thing, but I don't think I will ever be truly content on my own. I just don't know how to rid myself of this desire and find contentment on my own. Sad, but very true for me.
