Sis,Re: Seeking, Searching, hopefully finding

[Guest guest]

Pleased to meet you too!

Thank you, Sis. I was sorry about it, sad for awhile yet a funny thing happened

-- I started

feeling freer, less encumbered by " stuff " . I began to really learn the

incredible importance

of connections with others. Too, I had a great deal in my life to let go of

emotionally and

in putting myself first, or rather in learning (still) to do so, as I was

selling things off,

investing in alternative ways to heal, I was also releasing my past. That part

was good. I

began to develop the faith that if I am in need of a table, well, I will find

one.

I still have things I'd like to sell, get rid of, empty out the storage unit (so

I can stop paying

to store what I have left) and now that the weather is warming up I can do that.

What I

want most is a place to call " home " , my own little comfy spot in this big world

of ours and

to have just those things that have significance to my being me, things that

will help me or

give comfort. I certainly can't keep staying with my mother -- that is not good

for me.

I'm working on the patience, faith, dilegence, and work it takes to make this a

reality.

Hugs to you!

Melinda
