A Lonely Life
Hi there. This is my first ever blog, so I'm not to sure what to write or if anyone will even read this.I have something on my mind though & a friend told me that a great way to release feelings is by setting them free, so here goes nothing.
I have to travel extensively for my job. In the beginning it was so exciting. I travelled to places I thought I would never visit in my life. I've seen what most people will never see, good, bad, beautiful & dreadful things. For the past 10 years I have tried to find balance in my life. It is so hard. My diet & exercise always seems to be changing, people seem to wonder in and out of my life & love never seems to last very long. The only constant is my dog waiting at home when I get there. Even that is sad as I only get to see him 6 months of the year.
I feel like my life has come to an abrupt standstill when I started working in my industry & it seems like I have not evolved as a person. Yes, I got a little wiser, I have a bit more money & knowledge of how the world actually works. I have a greater perspective on different cultures, religions & traditions, but no emotional connection with a person I can call my love. Thats all we are all really looking for. A person who sees all of you, accepts you with all your faults & is still willing to call you the best thing that happened to them.
I hope one day I can find my reason, my happiness & my best thing that has happened to me...
I will be home in a couple of weeks & really look forward to see my dog, ride my bike & hopefully find someone I can share a cup of coffee with. Until then, I will keep traveling, keep searching & definitely keep hoping....
Peace

Saffers are the new wanderers (I'm also one), enjoy your wanderings and along the way you will find friends for the moment, some as you will already have found will stick, some won't. People enter your life for a season, a reason or a lifetime (not my quote) and it is impossible to know up front which it will be

Your first attempt was awesome!
Good luck with your "endless quest".
Now Im back, ive decided to accept my circumstance and make the most of everything, I am less stressed, more tolerant, and just more happy with my life in this part of the world.
Hope you find enjoyment here somehow.
Enjoy seeing your dog.
Happiness is really doing what makes you happy. Be it your dog, a cup of coffee in good company or riding your bike without a care in the world.
I have no wise words, nothing to make it feel better. But I do believe, deep down somewhere we all crave that connection.
Good luck
