Being alone at our age...

Being alone at our age... - 12/06/10 12:54 AM

I was wondering how it will be now that my son and DIL are apart getting a divorce one of these days? I will be with the DIL as my son has stopped talking to me. His girlfriend doesn't like that his to be ex and I are very close friends. By trying to steer clear of interfering and being friends with all concerned I have still ended up in the middle of their childish ridiculous games. I am going to follow my heart, have a great holiday with whomever chooses to be around me. That's the best I can do... HoHum!!!!

That's the attitude!

True Peace
True peace can be experienced only when we stop giving and taking sorrow. In order not to give sorrow we need a clear heart that has no ill feelings and for not taking sorrow we need a big heart that can tolerate and help other souls to get over their weaknesses

Good quote!

I've been disowned again by the family. Not invited to Thanksgiving and no Christmas. Guess I'll have my own little Christmas party, too!

Well I've been disowned by just about the whole world. But sometimes it's better to be alone than be the target of underhanded garbage. I'm thinkin' if it's just you and God, that's better than you and a crowd of unbelievers. Look at it
that way and enjoy Christmas!

I have had the priviledge of meeting with boomers on several occassions and it was magical. I loved them all madly right from the start and we were so comfortable with one another. Maybe one day we can all or most get together somewhere and that would be unbelievable for sure. Luckily I am in Vegas where many come for vacation so I can meet them when here if all is well and all my ducks are in a row...
I missed seeing EagleHeart and her husband due to relatives problems that made me sick, but NEVER AGAIN!!! I have made that quite clear to everyone here.

I dream of the day I can meet some BWS members. I love 'em and don't even know 'em. But a person gets a sense of another
person's heart via the written word. And many of these members'
posts have warmed my heart. I know you feel bad about missing
Eagle when she was in town. You've mentioned that at other
times on here. Let's believe they'll be another chance for the two of you to meet.

The thought just struck me being any age is a good thing,
if you feel well.

I am so use to being alone, even more than I realized. If the neatest man on earth came into my life I am afraid I would close him off and remain in my own little comfort zone. I guess "been there - done that," is the truth in my case. And yes jabber being well makes all the difference.
