Isolated?

I suddenly feel so alone.  Everyone changes so much during this stage of life that when I stop and look around, those nearest me seem so unfamiliar.  Life and relationships are so, so different from just three years ago, and I feel as though I have so much catching up to do. 

I feel as if I have very little handle on life, and that the more I learn the less I know.  I think I'm okay with that, though.  

I also feel that I depend too much on others and that that is bringing me down. Regardless of how good intentions may be, or how hard I try to refrain from holding expectations, people let me down. 

I'll start tomorrow afresh.

Sometimes we have to take a step back, take a deep breath and regain perspective. When we focus on all of the things we are learning, the world seems small and we feel overwhelmed.

Take a step back, take a deep breath and remember that we aren't supposed to get it all.

And when you feel lonely, give me a call. You're not alone, friend.
