Before I dose off today (it's 10pm here) I wanted to share a tiny reflection on what life has offered me so far.
Even if there were rough times in the past, I know that there will be a day when I'll look back and say that it was worth the fighting.
I was close to despair many a night when I felt alone and misunderstood by others. I have a life and do meet people every day but I guess there is still that person missing that I have to find. And that's not simply the girl of my dreams but perhaps she is any person that can shine a light through my darkness or inspire me to go on.
I can only say that I do come here more often than I did and realise that this virtual community thrives with warmth and friendships. Some may be real, some not... but I feel that I am being changed both through my actual real life now and also through what I get here.
I guess all we want to do is to reach out and proclaim to others that we're alive and we're worth it!!! things that we often overlook and downplay when we feel alone.
I know that I felt powerless myself in many ways over the years but I want to get to know more and more people as I grow older and remind myself that every time I get to know about someone else, I also get to know more about myself...
So wherever or whoever you are, I can only say that we are NOT alone! Now off to bed...
