Learning to live alone again is going well, in fact I love my new space. It is exactly the environment I needed for the metamorphosis that is occurring within me. My new space is quiet, serene and has beautiful views of nature that I can enjoy from inside the comfort of my home. I am NOT an outdoorsy person. I chose the word metamorphosis on purpose as it means "a change of the form or nature of a thing or person into a completely different one, by natural or supernatural means." My transformation is internal, more mental than physical. It's the rebirth of the person I once was with some new additions based on lessons learned. I firmly believe that we should be on a continuous journey of learning, growing and changing so I am embracing it.
I am a work in progress. Working towards focusing on what I can change within myself, not others. The Serenity prayer is my mantra on the difficult days:
Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the thing I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.
Managing my time between surrounding myself with my circle of family and friends who provide me with the support, feedback and motivation I need to make these changes. As well as the needed time alone to process all of the feelings and emotions that come along with such a major transformation.
Winter is the time for rest and hibernation to rebuild for the coming spring and I cannot make any promises or predictions but I'm thinking that something beautiful and refreshed, revitalized will emerge after the cold long days of winter. Stay tuned to see.
Also I have recently published the sequel to Passport Wife which is titled Love Lessons.
