Sometimes the loneliness shrouds me in a blanket of darkness but other times I embrace the aloneness and relish in the fact it's just me, myself and I.

The thought of being alone as I walked away from all I knew terrified me.

The thought of re-entering the dating pool with two kids in tow was almost enough to make me decide against what I knew was ultimately the best thing for me.

Some days my heart weighs heavy but some days the weight that lifted is enough to have me floating away and some days it’s a painful mix of both.
