Most of the time I'm OK being single. I have even embraced the wide open places of this season of life. For the first time in my life, I have the freedom to do what I want, when I want to. I have time and space to read, reflect, journal, draw and ponder life. I recognize this as a gift and am grateful.
However...
There are times that I feel lonely - not often, due to my friends and family - but those emotions of being solo, single, a widow can be particularly poignant during holidays. NYE has often been a time of celebration, dressing up, being with friends, dancing, eating - something Matt and I enjoyed together.
It's New Year's Eve.
I have no plans.
I feel alone.
But I know I'm not.
Thanks be to God.
