the world works in mysterious ways... in a moment of fear last night when i was worrying about my future but yet surrounded by the calm of nature, i got a phone call from a v-ball friend inviting me out to drinks. i wasn't in the city so i couldn't go, but it just made me smile. the call came at exactly the right time. i know, i just need to keep putting myself out there and meeting new people and building friendships. in the end, making friendships and finding love in that way, is what will help me be happy and not feel alone while going through the divorce and it is always what gives me great hope for my future. so, one thing i have resolved from all of this and learned, is that i like being outgoing and social and i need to be and regardless of if i get married someday again, i will not lose myself again in that marriage and lose that social and outgoing and balls out person. i lost that along the way in my current marriage. i lost my individuality and spirit. there is a way to have that and a marriage and next time i intend to have both.
Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking. -Marcus Aurelius
