Is there anybody out there in Central Connecticut looking to connect with new friends? I searched for a blog here and there wasn't one so I am starting my own. If you want to blog with me...reply to this. I want to learn more about the people in my area.
Good Morning World....it is Friday before a holiday weekend and I can't believe that it will September soon.
It is Friday and I don't have anyone to spend the weekend with...what I mean is I don't have the person I want in my life to share adventures with, share love with, share my life with so I am going away alone to a cabin at a lake. I had asked a friend to come away with me thinking it could be a sort of spiritual retreat, but that got cancelled because she has a child and her ex-husband doesn't want to take his daughter for the holiday weekend. So it will just be me. And the thought of it is exciting...I mean I can be spiritual without friends...I am so looking forward to "finding me" over the weekend since this summer I have been so busy and haven't had a spiritual retreat or break. The thought of picking up a book and reading what I want and writing when I want sounds lovely. I haven't had a chance to write as often as I would like.
I discovered something about a few of my friends...they are always busy and running from one thing to the next, but I on the other hand am not looking for that...I like the quiet moments...I like to take time for me...I don't want to be so busy that I don't have time to think, feel, live or enjoy who I am. Since discovering the joy of my spirit, I can't imagine being so busy to not let myself feel--of course I learned that after many years of not feeling and allowing myself to be so busy that I didn't feel. It is ok when you are trying to run from something, but when you are trying to face life and really live it...overcome fears, grow spiritually and evolve emotionally...it isn't okay to be so busy.
So as I feel apprehensive about going away to cabin where I will be solely dependent on me...building my own fire in the fireplace to keep warm at night (I have never built a fire, yes I was a girl scout, but we didn't do that ...we made cookies, sewed quilts, and decorated wreaths--fireside chats was one of them.) There is very little to do because I will be on an island ....and reality is that I don't the area and it is really dark at night--I would likely get lost....so I will probably hang in the cabin and the wooded area around there while I am away. I so look forward to the journey...but I feel it will be a journey on all levels--physical, emotional, mental and spiritual...someday soon I plan to take a retreat such as this with the person I love...when he is ready to pop into my life...I know he is out there...and no he doesn't have to be like me...but he sure has to be open to what I do and love....just calling YOU so you know I am ready too!
