Loneliness

According to Wikipedia, Loneliness is a feeling in which people experience a strong sense of emptiness and solitude. Loneliness is often compared to feeling empty, unwanted, and unimportant. Why is friendship so important? About how long do you think you could last without any human interactions? I can remember a time when my life was full of friendship and laughter. Why is it, as we get older our circle of friends gets smaller and smaller? Could it be because we have more responsibilities and less time for ourselves?



These are questions I seem to be asking myself all the time. Since my accident I have found myself alone more than normal. I don’t even have adult conversations anymore. I live my life threw my husband, sister, and best friend. Even though my time is spent with my children and I love them with all my heart, I could use an adult night with no kids.


My friends and family are so busy with their lives that they just cannot fit me in their schedules, leaving me alone at home all the time by myself (another reason for the start of this blog). I am not upset with them because I understand. When all of my friends where having children I was single and ready to mingle and I could never figure out why they had to always reschedule or they were always late. When I had children I finally understood, kids are very unpredictable. So again I completely understand. I just feel like I am the last thing on everyone’s list. Pick up kids, check, Go to the bank, check, go to soccer game, check, get groceries, check, pick up dry cleaning, check, oh and Anne she can wait till tomorrow. I know that’s not the way it goes but that’s how I feel it goes.


Sometimes I wish I was somewhere else. I hate this disease!!!!!!!
