Wonderful wondering! I was alone for three years after my divorce. It was a time of extreme terror at the blank slate before me that eventually grew into the dawning realization that the future was mine for the making. It was time of introspection and growth that led me to my current dear heart dude. He was a lifelong friend, also recently single, who convinced me to give our friendship turned romantic relationship a try. Twelve years later, I’m glad i was brave enough to say yes. However, if I should ever find myself alone again, I am confident I will be just fine. After spending most of my adult life caring for my children’s and significant others’ needs, I will be able to focus more fully on my own wants. That is when I will be able to write! Writing is an immersive undertaking for me. I get lost in my own little world and lose track of time and space. Hours pass in an instant. People and pets go hungry. I forget to eat and shower. So, I’ve back burnered my itch until I can focus on it without impacting others. Yes, I have a plan for those future years alone. But we all know what happens to best laid plans. 😂
