resisting the empty drawers' invitation
almost a year has
passed since the
divorce, and
nearly two years
since he left...
so far,
i've resisted the
empty
dresser drawers'
invitations to
fill them with
my clothes...
that would feel
too much like giving
up
too much like
admitting
the remoteness
of the possibility
i'll find
someone new
to share the
last 30+ years
of my life with...
some dreams
die hard
______________
i'm spending
the entire weekend
doing art and
listening to
music
feels good

Fill that drawer UP, girl! It's YOUR life, so let yourself expand into all its available space...
and when you have stretched as far and wide as you have inside you to do-- for yourself, not for an imaginary person you might meet--then someone may come who deserves you!
I thought my life was not complete without a relationship, now I can't imagine why I ever believed that lie! I guess all the pain from relationships finally got the message through to me. There is so much love available to you, never a shortage!
PS: I deleted my previous comment because there was a typo--
Hey there firebird! Thanks for the good advice... I trust your wisdom. I'm gonna share a secret... the first thing that came to mind when I read your comment and imagined filling up the drawers... it was sort of a "murphy's law" thought, as in: the minute I fill them up is when the perfect partner will appear.
sheesh... i'm such a slow learner LOL!
big hugs,

SS--Not such a crazy scenario, actually--if you read "The Law of Attraction", it says just that--that what we wish for comes when we stop thinking about the lack of it, and have positive thoughts instead!
Hallo.
Art and music are great healers.
Ah, you've come and gone again in the time it has taken me to wend my way back here, but here's a wee note to let you know I was here thinking of you and wishing you a fulfilling new year.
