The past few weeks have been really crazy for us. We've been super busy and super stressed, and honestly I've been feeling a little down about everything. Luckily yesterday I had a few lovely conversations with some unexpected friends and it helped me a lot.
As I've mentioned before, I don't have many friends. Recently my two "best friends" have been hanging out a surprising amount. No one bothers to call me, I know I live farther away, but if I knew stuff was going on I'd get there. In the past 2 weeks I've only gotten out of the house once with someone other than my daughter or husband.
All this makes my yesterday all the more great. When you feel forgotten or left out nothing makes it better then being remembered by "distant" friends. By "distant" I just mean good people I don't normally talk to on the day to day. Of course I won't say who they are but if they happen to read this they'll know it's about them.
I may not have solved any of my problems, but it's always nice to talk to a new ear, and I got some lovely good news. I am one of those "island" people who can only confide in a few people and even then only certain things. What I tend to forget is that there are people out there who care and will listen and won't judge. If I actually chose to reach out there would be more hands reaching back then I would have ever thought.
Insecurity can ruin the best of us. 10 times out of 10 the worst of it is in our own heads.
I'd like to say thank you to all my friends who might not "always" be there, but are always there when I didn't know I needed them.
Stay Tuned.
