so this is it

This is my new "start" (HA!) at 50. A one room apartment, after suffering a stroke at 48 and being abandoned by the "man" (another HA!, not that I am bitter) two years and three months later because of said stroke. But what the hell, after yesterday's quote, I'll consider this new place to be a mansion. Still waiting for my bed to be delivered, that's why you see a glimpse of the inflatable bed (thank you, my dear brother and sister-in-law).

when you go wow, just wow

I found this quote, sitting, as I do these days, alone in my apartment, and just said "Wow!" out loud, to myself. It gives me a lot to think about, maybe it explains why I'm so utterly alone today, as the quote describes practically my whole life, from childhood. I have *always* felt I have to explain myself and prove my worth. So maybe I needed people to walk out on me, or walk away myself.

The moment you feel you have to prove your worth to someone is the moment to absolutely and utterly walk away.
