I'm so glad I read your blog tonight. I met you through Tahnee. I don't know where you are, but it sounds like you're away at (law?) school, away from a place you love dearly...
What did I expect? I moved to a town where I know no one. Did I think that people were going to kiss and hug and love me as soon as I walked through the city's door?
Yes. I think a part of me did.
I'm where I want to be, and it feels right... yes yes yes, all of that. But tonight I am so lonely. I want to connect to someone real and true and lovely and who will allow me to cry hard and be ugly.
Thank you for sharing your precious, lonely feelings with the world. It was what I was looking for tonight. I think I can go home to my quiet empty room now.

Wow your big time traveler.....Few yrs back I had the chance to go to Korea or Italy for the Army, Italy it was...
best wishes......
That night I called Kelli and Skye. Thank you both.
you're welcome.
i hope your loneliness heals in time... the gods knows mine comes and goes. tonight i am lonely again, but knowing that there are other people feeling that way too, wherever they are... that makes me feel less alone. comforted in my loneliness by the fact that it is okay.
yes, i am at law school. somewhere along the line that seemed like a good idea. i know that it still is, but maybe i should have stay in ontario? life would be so different. i wouldn't be so lonely.
but then life wouldn't be what it is. i wouldn't be blessed with the friends i have found, the self i am creating.
but gods. some nights i'm just so lonely.
like now.
i will read words of you and others and remember how we connected despite our distance in space and time, and remember that souls can be together even when bodies are not.
thanking you...
