Is there any reason to assume we are lonely for a purpose? To teach us a lesson about being alone later in life. When children have moved on, friends have moved away, passed away or your not sure. Are we alone now in life to prepare us for the future? Is this something we should deal with all of life? I think I have discovered the answer..........wait for it........here it comes......
NO!!! Even when we feel alone....we are not. Even if we think we are alone....we are not. Even if you think you will be alone....we are not. God is with us....everyday, every minute of everyday, every second of every minute of everyday...and so on. This is something I realized sitting at my desk at work. Call it an epiphany if you like.....I'm not sure.
I awoke this morning feeling tired, alone and so far away from reality I wasn't sure what to do. So I started my morning routine....coffee, shower, clothes, wake up kid, get him dressed (which should be an olympic event that early in the morning.), feed him and get in the car. I got to work after dropping him off at school and thought....here I go again. Same thing everyday...monotony at its best. I sat here thinking my mom's birthday would be coming up if she were alive, mother's day was coming up, and I had no mother to celebrate with. AHHHH but I have God, right?RIGHT!!! All these thoughts kept taking me back to being lonely.
If you think about it...I'm not really lonely. I have a wonderful dad, grandma and son. Not to mention the wonderful friends I have........but the emptiness is so much greater sometimes that I don't know what to do. So I pray and I realize....here it is again.....I have God. I have all these wonderful "mommies" here on earth with me now. Mama Cheryl, Peggy, and a few other wonderful women in my life. WOW!!! I'm not alone.....here on earth I have all these wonderful things, people and GOD....I am truly blessed to have such wonderful things. Layne is wonderful, my daddy is wonderful, my grangran is wonderful, my Magpie, MiMi, and Lolita are wonderful, My Meechelle is wonderful, My AMG is wonderful (love, mal-mal), Sissie has been a solid rock in the storm.THANK YOU!!!!
