Only One

There is only one kitten I will be spending the rest of my life with. She is right here….

Sightseeing

Doing a little sightseeing with my bestie!

Sunrise

A beautiful smile forms on her face and lights up the room.

I could smell the sweet aroma of flowers as I blinked. My eyes adjusted to the morning light as I woke up. On my back I looked up at the ceiling. Smiling. The kitten laying beside me shifted and purred in her sleep. I turned to look at her. She was laying on her side, softly dozing, a slight smile on her face.

I felt my heart swell within my bosom. “Gods she beautiful,” I whispered to myself. I turned onto my side and kissed her forehead. I paused there for a moment, my sniffer drew in the smell of spring flowers, a result of her shampoo.

A couple tears streamed from one eye as I considered the events of the last couple months. My wife left me. I reconnected with an old friend. Said friend and I got too close and well…. it just didn’t work out. Then I met her. The kitten beside me.

We shared a common friend. A friend whom felt we might be good friends for each other. Oh how right he was. Its been a week now. We have been on more adventures than I can count. She has shown me the world and taken me places I only ever dreamed of seeing.

Today is a new day. She blinks, her eyes open and meet mine. A beautiful smile forms on her face and lights up the room.

I am finally happy.


And Darkness Shall Fade

You never know what tomorrow will bring. Will storm clouds descend upon you, relentless and never waning? Will the darkness fade, giving way to light?

The gods have a plan for each and every one of us. Its not always clear what that is or how poor the road may be to get there. But in the end I believe that if we weather the storm and never give up, it will be worth it in the end when all is made clear.

I truly don’t know what the future holds for me. I know not where the road will lead or when the fog will lift. But I do know this: the gods have delivered a light to me. A beautiful light. It shines brighter than any light I have seen in a very long time.

Life

I am excited but proceeding cautiously.

Life. It has a way of changing on you, unexpectedly. You can roll with the punches or hide in a corner.

To say my life has been changing lately is an understatement. Two months ago my wife left me and I found myself alone and wandering. A month later I reconnected with an old friend and I was on top of the world. She had even proposed to me. Sadly that didn’t work out and she ended up leaving as well.

Of course I blamed myself. What was wrong with me? Where was I screwing up so bad? I’m not sure if I’ll ever have an answer to these questions. Not that I need one….

You see. I roll with the punches.

Sure, I was feeling pretty depressed. Alone. Worthless. But I carried on. I have an amazing network of supportive friends whom I can fall back on for support. If you are reading this, you are probably one of them.

Thank you.

My life is changing again. For the better. I am looking up and the road ahead looks good. I am excited but proceeding cautiously. I can’t bare to have my heart broken again.

Thanks again everyone, for your love and support. I am so very blessed to have you all in my life.
