Thoughts, snipets of emotions, struggles, and my joy in the journey of being single, yet hoping for my dream to come true of a little family of my own someday...

Abrasions
It's been a discouraging weekend. I seem to have really high highs, and really low lows. I'm hopeful, and then I'm doubtful. I think most of the time I am on the up-side...but weekends like these really get me down and discouraged. Just feeling lonely...and I hate that I do that. I just need to trust. I read this quote in my Book of Mormon today that I had written long ago in the footnotes...and it seemed to relate so much to me. "It is in the daily abrasions that we find the imperfections in our own souls". When I say it's been a discouraging weekend, it's just been one of those times where I feel like I'm not meeting anyone because I'm 'flawed'...or I have too many flaws for someone to want to be with. I know in my brain that's not true...but telling it to my heart sometimes is way way too hard. So my thought tonight is...I'm thankful that I do have these 'abrasion' weekends...because they help me to truly evaluate my life-and things I want to change and make better so that I am more ready for whenever he does come into my life....more ready for the future.

I loved this quote...but I hate it when you are lonely or are hurt or sad or discouraged. I wish I had the ability to search out someone for you and bring him to your front door and say here he is. Sometimes it seems the best people have to wait the longest for the blessings to come. I'm sorry you had a hard weekend but I was glad you texted me so that we could chat. Don't forget the chat we had... I mean it!
