Please do not judge your own worth by those around you or not around you. Your value is immeasurable in and of itself. God loves you more than you or anyone else can fully comprehend.
I too am alone right now, but I know that God loves me and is always with me, even through the worst of times. He is with all of us at all times. I am grateful to him for my gift of life.
Here I am, most often the pessimist, one prone to bemoan my fate and cursing the transgressions of others against me. And yet I realize now that I am even thankful for all the pain and misery that has come into my life as they are nothing, absolutely nothing compared to what He endured for my sake. He loves us that much. For that I am in continual awe.
So I embrace my solitude now and wish well on all my loved ones so far away from me at this time. For I know He will be there beside me as I go through this, and I will endeavor to remember He is also there in the good times too - I must not lose sight of that lest I be ungrateful there too. For I know in the end this too shall pass away. It is but a heartbeat that will be gone before you know it, but one that will temper my soul for the coming eternity. For me, I say let His will be done.
HM, your D loves you wherever she is. Don't forget that. You are her mother and that is a very precious R. No one can take that away from you.
