The State of Our World
I found a meditation course that starts next week. And I actually have those days off from work, so I'm going to attend. It's a good starting point.
I've completely bombed on my attempt to write a book. Maybe I'll try again, someday.
I have a good start on finding a (new) direction. It's hard, though. Everything I once believed in has blown up in my face and I don't even know what I care about anymore. All I really know for sure is that I exist, and that there's a reason for it. Other than that, I haven't a clue. I'm right now just accepting what is. Trying not to judge it as good or bad. (That's a challenge)
I'd still like to find love. Someone to share the rest of my life with, but I don't know if that will ever happen. I'm trying to be okay with the fact that it might not. I know that the older I get, the less likely it is to happen. Especially considering that I'm not quite as "free-spirited" (read: easy) as many women out there are. People these days seem to value things like honor, loyalty, fidelity, etc. a lot less than they used to. Things that were once meant for two people who share a bond and nobody else are no longer sacred or even special. If that's the case, then what's the point?
People anymore equate morals and values with "hang-ups".
