Through the Looking Glass

Day 1 - I am grateful to still have my parents. There was a time when someone tried to isolate me from them. In my time of need, they were there for me, they were my safe haven when I ran to them. They've been one of the biggest rocks ever since my divorce.

Day 2 - One of the things I've learned from my past experience is that I matter. My opinion, feelings, desires - they all count. If they don't, then, that's not a place I need to be.

Day 3 - One thing I do for myself is take time in the evening to be alone. That's my reading time. (I'm in between books right now. Before I start a new one, I've popped in here.)

Day 4 - One of my biggest fears in a relationship is being hurt by a terrible ending. Over the last few years, I've gotten good at building walls and keeping people at arm's length. I've made wonderful friends, don't get me wrong, but they can't hurt me too much. But, someone found his way in, and I'm not afraid. I know that no matter what the future holds, I will always have these sweet memories. That helps in allowing my walls to stay down and not to be fearful.
