When will I be loved, 55 asked me.

When will I be loved?

My heart has been asking this since I turnEd 55.

In truth, I have not put my heart out there. Not really. Not all the way. Not where I can be hurt.

I find myself closer to taking a chance. On me. I wonder if it’s too late. For that part of love to come for me.

I am not desperate. I am not lonely. I am just wondering. I am just wandering a bit. Towards something.

I think this is a good thing. Mom gave up her dreams for us. I am sad she didn’t do more for herself. I think she would be sad if I would do the same thing.

I want to walk on a beach with a friend. I want to talk of silly things. I want to talk of many things. I want to talk of serious things.

I would like someone to get to know the whole of me and find that me satisfying. I wonder if that should ever happen.

I am not looking for romance. I am not looking for sex. I am not looking for companionship.

I am looking for connection.

I wonder if connection will find me?

I am asking a question. I don’t know what the question is.

Do you?

asking for A Friend,

Note: I feel deliciously vulnerable right now. I used to hate feeling vulnerable. I don’t mind it now. It just means my heart are speaking loudly. I hear you. What does your heart say to you?

One step.

One step.

One step.

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being…YOU!

  1. In my world, connection is a different thing. But I understand the need. You are part of that connection for me, but somehow, that connection close is in suspended animation. How to rectify? I guess only God knows.
