Keepin it real

I tried hard today to be happy with being alone.  It went pretty well.  I spent a lot of time with my kids which was really nice.  I am trying to learn contentment in being emotionally alone and I think one of the keys to this is to find meaningful things to fill your time.  I find the hardest times I have are late at night when I have no one to talk. I have no one close to me that cares to hear about my day in vivo.  It's not important to talk about my day though until my day has ended, so if I maintain a busy life until the day is thru I do not struggle nearly so much with loneliness.  I's important to find the right things to keep me busy though. I really need to start exercising more and doing more service to my friends, family and community.  Last night I failed miserably at being alone.  Tonight, not so bad :)
