well, i can sit here and mope about it... pontificate on how corporate america rams this holiday down our throats, tells us what we should expect every other commercial on tv...radio...billbooard...etc. i could feel isolated, alone, left out, unworthy, unloved, un-fill-in-the-blank.
yes. i'm wearing black today. mostly to be cynical and to amuse. this year, i've got nothing personal against the big V day. in fact, all i can think about are my accomplishments the past few months. my life is changing for the better, with or without a significant other at my side.
i am not defined by anyone but myself.
this day, as i hope all others, i wish for those with husbands, lovers, boyfriends, girlfriends, wives and kid(s)...that they take care and be good, supportive, kind, compassionate, and loving to eachother. be grateful for all you have and throw a few good thoughts to all those out there that are in less than ideal situations, are being abused physically, sexually, mentally, emotionally.
it's one thing to be lonely
and quite another to be alone.
i'm alone and doin' purty darned good.
how you doin?
ciao&meow!
