Valentines Day

Perfect day for reflections on love and loneliness I suppose. I have to wonder why I'm feeling so down and lonely today, when this holiday never really mattered to me when I was married. I'm sure it's just the symbol, the reminder that I'm alone... that I'm probably going to be alone for a while.

No matter how much I tell myself that I can and should be happy on my own, I so yearn to find a partner to share myself and my life with. I thought for a very brief moment that I might have... and I know that's adding to my melancholy. It is hard to believe that I'm likely to find another person so seemingly well suited for me - but I have to believe they're out there somewhere.
