Life

There’s so much more to life than finding someone who will want you or being sad over someone who doesn’t. There’s a lot of wonderful time to be spent discovering yourself without hoping someone will fall in love with you along the way, and it doesn’t need to be painful or empty. You need to fill yourself up with love. Not anyone else. Become a whole being on your own. Go on adventures, fall asleep in the woods with friends, wander around the city at night, sit in a coffee shop on your own, write on bathroom stalls, leave notes in library books, dress up for yourself, give to others, smile a lot. Do all things with love, but don’t romanticize life like you can’t survive without it. Live for yourself and be happy on your own. It isn’t any less beautiful, I promise.

    Finding contentment in your current chapter of life allows you to have a happiness that will draw others to you
I agree with you.

    Having worked on the road, staying in hotels, eating alone most times, going to movies on my own when traveling, teaches you to be self reliant and happy with your own company. But it is niece to have a cat cuddle in your lap if no one else is.
Have a furball makes all the difference.

That's a lovely sentiment as well.

    I'm in, I made similar decisions for myself just a few days ago, trying to approach everything with a new outlook and just enjoy the ride. I've done what I need to do, from here on out it's doing what I choose to do, with a positive attitude and calm demeanor.
I wish you all the best.

That's a wonderful statement. I was just going to blog something similar. It's still not letting me on though. My jist is that I've got to do something for myself. My whole adult life I have sought to please others. Now, I find myself empty. I'm trying to correct this. It's a slow and patience requiring process.
I love the pic you put up for this post. It's awesome.
